Are you struggling to get back into your homeschooling routine after a school break? Your vacation is over, no more lazy mornings sleeping until 9 or 9:30… Yeah, friend, this is a real confession of a tired mama. I just wanted to sleep for as long as my kids would be able to hold without eating breakfast.

Sleep talk apart, we had a fantastic time just chilling. We did not travel and we barely left the house, but it was fun to simply relax, watch movies and play games.

Now it’s time to get back into our homeschooling routine! YAY!! Even though I had fun and slept a lot more during our school break, I missed our routine terribly! Why? Because we are used to it, it keeps our hands and minds busy, because I like the predictability of a good healthy routine and I miss homeschooling!!! Yes, I love homeschooling my kids.

3 easy ways to get back into homeschooling routine

The truth is: I was excited to organize our books and binders for Monday morning. We were finishing one book and starting a new read-aloud, so that was exciting! I have to say reading-aloud is our favorite time of the day! We all cuddle on the sofa, crack open the book and the rest is just magic.

Better than reading great stories together are the conversations we have after, the ideas that come out of my children’s heads, their narration, their drawings of scenes they remembered, etc.

Reading is magical, isn’t it?

I love books! I love living books! The books that make you imagine yourself in the story, that makes you laugh until your belly hurt like Mrs. Piggle Wiggle or make you cry at the end, like Charlotte’s Web or Owls in the Family. You become attached to the characters and their stories, how can you not cry at the end?

[Tweet “Getting back into your homeschooling routine should not be painful.”]

Table Of Contents

Here are my 3 tips to ease back into our homeschool routine, either after a long weekend or after a vacation:

1 – Get back into your homeschooling routine by getting your kids excited about the new things we will be learning that week.

So mom, learn to “market” well your next homeschool week’s assignments!! Show excitement! Excitement is contagious. On Sunday morning begin to tell your kids how much you are anticipating all the new things you will be learning about… or the new book you will start reading… or the science project assigned for that week because… Yes, kids can get and should get excited about learning! And you should be excited about teaching and also learn with them.

Print out a fun kids’ weekly checklist to help them be independent and excited about accomplishing their homeschool tasks on time! I create these for my kids and they love it!

2- Get back into your homeschooling routine by making it relaxing.

Chill out, don’t wake up like the freaking homeschooling mother who acts more like a sergeant pulling out the whistle and “The To-Do List”. I’ve done that! My kids used to run and hide while I was doing that. I was making them hate homeschooling.

Now, we start our days reading aloud while enjoying breakfast, it comes just natural to us. It’s relaxing, everyone is still kind of waking up, it gives them time to start responding to the reading, we talk about it, we pray, once we prayed and breakfast is done they automatically start their handwriting while I’m off to the next book. We like to read and memorize poems or read a short story to transition in between subjects it gives them a break without allowing them to scatter around the house.

My focus today is to create a more relaxed and joyful homeschool atmosphere where everyone loves to learn today. We take our time exploring and making memories together.

3 – Get back into your homeschooling routine by making it fun.

Now hear me here, your idea of fun might not be my idea of fun or vice-versa. Just saying… LOL, I’m not very artsy and crafty.

I’m not the kind of mom who let her kids play in the puddles although I really envy this kind of moms who let their kids play and get dirty. I only wish I could be like them. Instead, I hyperventilate only with the thought of mud, painting, and play dough all over the place and me on all fours scrubbing the floors. (Pray for me, will you?)

But that doesn’t mean we don’t have fun. We do – lots! So I hope.

We watched the Magic School Bus for our Science lesson yesterday and read Shakespeare out loud making funny voices and imitating the British accent, that was fun!

We did beautiful drawings and my daughter and I practice some hand lettering, that was also fun! I watched my 4-year-old doing 12 pages of her handwriting book and coloring every picture in those pages while my 7-year-old son celebrated losing his front tooth and talking funny.

See, all of these little ordinary things we do together, they are fun. They are worth being noticed and celebrated.

At the end of the day, we had a great time, we accomplished more than I planned and back we were into our routine!
 
It wasn’t very structured, we didn’t start on time and we didn’t finish our math. And it was perfectly ok! Because when the day was over, this mama here had a big smile on her face and her heart was filled with joy because her children love to learn and she still loves to teach them!
 
So relax, make it fun and make it exciting! You will get back into your routine easier than you think. I’m looking forward to tomorrow and celebrating my today!

My goal this year is to stress less and enjoy more! I want to have fun, cherish every learning moment together and for that I need to let go of perfection and control And guess what?? By following my kids learning rhythm and cues, our homeschool days have been nothing but joy and perfection!!! 😀 Keep up the geat job with Tiago! I’m so proud of you!!! Love you!!! <3

    Homeschool routine… um… we went to the beach! 😉 Ha! We made an animated movie! We coloured! We have been going the unschooling route lately and it. is. epic. Other than Bible we just kind of go where it flows. We really can’t get into routine yet, which I am itching for. I have six days before we leave, have to catch up on a ton, clean, and pack, and then we are gone for an entire month. So school is out for a while. ha! We are definitely going to be doing school year round this year, oy vey. Loved your post!

      That is so exciting Rebecca!! Who said to teach our kids we need to glue them in a chair and make them write all day eh? Learning should be exciting and the whole world is our book! God’s creation is filled with wonders that spark our little ones eyes and ours. I used the word routine and but I guess what we follow is really a rhythm of learning and discovering daily. We do school year around too and love it! <3 Thanks for visiting and commenting, it means so much to me!

    I actually wrote a post about this not to long ago; We tend to start back into school a bit slowly only cover a few subjects the first day and adding more in as we go through the week. We also try to keep it light and fun too.

    Everyone thinking of homeschooling her children should read this! I wish I had read it at the beginning of our hs journey many years ago. It is the way we have always done school, but it would have rid me of the guilt I felt for not being that super structured, drill sergeant hs mom! I am so glad now that I was never that mom, just because my own children would not have responded well. 🙂

Ana is a woman who pours herself out for others! She runs her blog "They Call Me Blessed", that you can visit anytime... for great advice, and she sells many affordable products there, for organizing etc. for mothers/homeschooling You can also join her Homeschool Sisterhood membership, which we did last year, & it has so much going on each week! You can pick & choose from co-ops and books clubs, and opportunities for mothers to get together, for bible study, etc. She also runs various conferences. I have attended the Charlotte Mason one as well as her "For Such A Time As This". They were both excellent! I have been really encouraged by being a part of Ana's community as a homeschool mom and woman growing in my walk in the Lord.read more

Ana has been such a huge help to me in my home school journey. Homeschooling can be extremely overwhelming and time... consuming, especially in the beginning! Ana has provided so many tools that has simplified our days and taken such a load off what I have to do as a teacher for my kids. Not just that, but she has helped me with my spiritual journey as well. Providing simply, fun and encouraging tools that help me take care of myself and stay close to God. Thank you so much, Ana, for all you do!!read more

Ana has a beautiful heart and her laugh is contagious these are the extra perks of being apart of her blog family. What... drew me to her blog was to get homeschooling info and ideas, what has held me there is her evident passion and love for Christ. Through her blog I've grown an interest in bible journaling because of the artist side of journaling I have seen her demonstrate. Thank you for all your hard work to provide great resources for homeschooling and much more, and for the prayers!!! The praysers are an added blessing! �read more

HAPPY HANUKKAH 🕎 Hanukkah is about fighting fo HAPPY HANUKKAH 🕎 
Hanukkah is about fighting for our freedom and religious right to worship God and serve Him freely. 

Tonight, we light the menorah with prayers of hope, faith, and determination knowing that the same God that gave the Maccabbes the victory over the enemy back then, is the same today and forever - He will give us the victory if we stand up for righteousness and justice! 

We won't give up the fight. We won't give in. The enemy has no power over us unless we give him some. But we won't! We're more than conquers! We're victorious! We're the light of the world! 

It's time to rededicate ourselves and our families to God. We're God's children, bought and redeemed at a great price. 

I challenge you and your family to pray against the enemy's forces for the next 8 nights. Pray, dear friends, as your life depends on it because it does. 

Happy Hanukkah!!! He still does miracles today.

Feeling anxious and overwhelmed with everything go Feeling anxious and overwhelmed with everything going on in the world right now?

The most important thing you can do right now is to turn your life to the One that knows it all. 

Your salvation and the salvation of your loved ones is more important than anything else. 

📌Have you given your life to Jesus yet? 
📌Have you invited Him to be your Lord and Saviour?

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.”
- Ephesians 2:8-9. 

No matter how good you are, you cannot save yourself. Only God can save you. 

Salvation is the free gift of God and is so simple to obtain:

1- ACKNOWLEDGE you’ve sinned (we all did) and ask the Lord to forgive you. 
2- BELIEVE that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He died on the cross to pay the penalty of your sins, was buried and rose from the dead on the third day. 
3- CONFESS that Jesus Christ is Lord and CALL on His name!

For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.” 
- Romans 10:13

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” - John 3:16.

HAPPINESS IS HOMEMADE We’re so thankful for fri HAPPINESS IS HOMEMADE

We’re so thankful for friends who love handcrafts as much as we do!

We usually do handcrafts in the afternoon after finishing our studies but today, it happened after pizza night. 

I love every craft idea, poem, story, picture study, etc that comes on @a_charlotte_mason_mama ‘s Beautiful Wonders monthly plans. It adds so much beauty in our homeschool and so much fun to our family time. 

Thank you @celineybird for all the fun we and our kids have together!🙌🏼
