We’re in the midst of a month-long throwback series centered on Normal Sucks by Jonathan Mooney… a powerful, neurodivergent-affirming book that challenges how we define success, intelligence, and worth. Over the next few weeks, we’ll revisit our favorite episodes unpacking big ideas from the book and what they mean for life, learning, and raising kids outside the norm. We’ll wrap it all up with an author Q&A you won’t want to miss. We hope you enjoy our discussion of this must-read title.

In this episode, we’re talking all about our homeschool plans for the 2025–2026 school year! From navigating middle school transitions and balancing drop-off programs to embracing unschooling flexibility and big-picture life changes, we’re giving you a behind-the-scenes look at how two very different homeschoolers map out the year ahead. Whether you’re brand new to homeschooling, questioning if you’re “doing enough,” or just curious how others are approaching the year, we hope our plans spark ideas, ease doubts, and remind you that there’s no one right way to homeschool.

We cracked open the Tuttle Twins books so you don’t have to. And wow... they’re somehow even worse than we imagined!!! Marketed as “secular” and “educational,” they’re actually a masterclass in fear-mongering, bias, and political propaganda dressed up as kid-friendly history. We pulled the most jaw-dropping quotes, unpacked the agendas (which are sometimes hidden and sometimes just smack you in the face), and confirmed without a doubt - hard pass.

This week we’re talking about something every homeschool parent eventually has to figure out… how to get a little time to yourself and still keep life running. We love being with our kids, but homeschooling means a lot of together time. Even the most devoted parent needs a breather now and then. We’re sharing the real-life ways we’ve managed alone time, tackled appointments, and kept up with day-to-day logistics while homeschooling full-time. From bartering kid swaps with friends to scaffolding independence, we’ve got ideas that work in different seasons of life, plus a healthy dose of honesty about what’s realistic (and what’s not).

In this episode, we dive into the messy, meaningful world of social-emotional learning (SEL) and what it actually looks like in a real-life, progressive homeschool. We’re not talking about boxed kindness worksheets or vague “be nice” mantras. This is about embedding emotional growth, empathy, and self-regulation into everyday moments. We share practical examples, helpful resources, and why SEL isn’t fluff… it’s foundational. Whether you’ve got littles just learning to name their feelings or teens navigating boundaries and big decisions, there’s something here for you.

We’re continuing our exploration of how secular homeschoolers can approach big, often complex topics—like religion, faith, gods, and belief systems—from a secular worldview. Our goal is to provide thoughtful, age-appropriate resources that help families discuss these subjects with nuance, curiosity, and respect for diverse perspectives.
This week we are concluding our review of the Annabelle and Aiden book series—an engaging collection designed to spark big conversations with young learners. We’ll review a few key titles and share how they can be used to encourage critical thinking, empathy, and a deeper understanding of worldviews without religious instruction.

In this episode, we’re diving into the surprisingly powerful role of boredom in our kids’ development. Yep—boredom! We talk about why unstructured time isn’t just okay, it’s actually great for sparking creativity, curiosity, and independence. We share research (including a study from UVA’s Jamie Jirout), practical tips for scaffolding self-directed play, and how to handle common parent concerns like sibling fights or kids who “don’t know what to do.” If you’ve ever felt like you need to entertain your kids 24/7, this one’s for you. Let’s normalize stepping back and letting them get a little bored.

In this episode, we’re asking a big question: What the f*ck did we do to kindergarten? From standardized testing to the disappearance of play, we dig into how early education in the U.S. has shifted from joyful exploration to academic pressure... and how that impacts our littlest homeschoolers. We'll break down how public school standards creep into homeschool expectations, why play is essential (backed by research, not just vibes), and how countries like Finland and Germany are getting it right. If you’ve ever worried your 5-year-old might be “behind,” this episode is your permission slip to take a deep breath and let go of the race.
If this episode resonates with you and you’d like to dive deeper into what developmentally appropriate education really looks like for kids ages 6 and under, check out our self-paced course, Preschool and Kindergarten, Reimagined: A Complete Guide for Homeschooling Littles. We’ll walk you through the why and how of play-based learning, help you build a calm and intentional rhythm to your days, and give you practical tools to support your child’s growth without the pressure of tests, rigid benchmarks, or outdated expectations.

Life happens—and when it does, it can throw your homeschool rhythm straight out the window. In this episode, we’re talking about how to keep going (or pause, pivot, and reimagine) when everything around you feels chaotic. Whether it’s grief, new babies, mental health struggles, divorce, or just plain burnout, we’ve been there—and we know you're not alone. We’ll share what’s worked for us, how to let go of guilt, and why learning never stops… even when the lesson plan does.

In this episode, we’re diving into a topic that gets us fired up: audiobooks are real books. Period. From the ancient roots of oral storytelling to modern research on comprehension and accessibility, we’re bringing the receipts. We also unpack the ableist assumptions that still linger in schools and homeschools alike—and we’re not holding back. Whether you're a read-aloud devotee, an audiobook fanatic, or somewhere in between, this episode will challenge your thinking and maybe give you some firepower for your next literary-themed debate.

This week we’re diving into the magic of strewing. Strewing is a low-pressure, curiosity-driven approach to learning that invites kids to explore without formal lessons or expectations. We talk about what strewing is (and what it isn’t), why it works, and how it can help shift the energy in your homeschool—especially if you’re feeling burnt out or your kids are recovering from school fatigue. Whether you’re an unschooler, a reluctant strewer, or just curious about new ways to foster self-directed learning, this episode offers real talk, practical tips, and plenty of imperfect honesty.
