Episode 34: Homeschooling and Home Management

by

Welcome back to another episode of The Relatable Homeschoolers! In today’s episode, we’re discussing homeschooling and home management!

What does home management look like when you’re homeschooling? In short, it can look like chaos! But it doesn’t have to. We have nine kids between the three of us, and we know how quickly our houses can be turned upside down when we’re there day in and day out.

The key is to have a plan and stick to it! In this episode of the podcast, we discuss all the areas of our homes that we have to manage in addition to homeschooling–it’s a lot!

Listen in as we talk about how we handle cleaning our homes and how this has evolved as our children have gotten older. We also talk about how we deal with the never-ending laundry piles.

We talk meal planning and grocery shopping, and we share the apps and websites we use to help us keep track of our favorite recipes. Having a list of go-to meals is something we all agree on!

And of course, we talk about our calendar systems, planners, and how to handle all the mail, bills, and other papers that never stop piling up.

The best part is, we all do things differently. There is no one right way to handle homeschooling and home management simultaneously. The key is having a plan or system in place that we can fall back on weekly.

We hope you are encouraged and glean something new to help you as you tackle your own homeschooling and home management!
