We are planning to start homeschooling on the road soon! I am so beyond excited to start RVing Full-Time with our kids next year. I just love traveling and there are so many great reasons to travel and explore the world around us.

And it’s easy to become bitten by the travel-bug. We live in a world where we can literally just pack up and travel at any point in time that we want. Our lives allow us to live without restraints and so many more people are starting to recognize this and make it their reality.

My husband and I used to spend hours on YouTube watching videos of families RVing full-time and dreaming with the possibility of one day doing the same. We both love traveling and have lived in many countries but since the kids were born, we had to slow down and do the “proper” thing: work, work, work to pay bills.

We knew we wanted to change that! So we did.

In January this year, we decided to turn our someday into today and bought our very first RV. In only a week, we gave notice on our rental townhouse and about a month later we moved full-time into it! Sounds crazy, but working as a blogger allows me to be location independent and why not live our daydream now?

Think about you and your families current situation. If you have a job that allows you to work from anywhere, and you are wanting to show your children the wonders of the world, why not think about traveling full-time as a family?

The options of where you could go, and what you could see are endless! Have you always had a want to see the Grand Canyon? Plan it and hit the road. What about taking a trip to Colorado to see the snow-capped mountains? All doable, 100%. Keep in mind that when traveling full-time as a family, your children and their education are a priority as well.

Homeschooling on the road is a great way to make certain that your children continue their education while getting to explore the wonders of the world at the same time. How awesome does that sound?! The great news? With everything available today as resources to be able to use, homeschooling on the road is absolutely possible!

Tips for Homeschooling on the Road when Traveling Full-Time as a Family

• Find a program that you want to use when homeschooling on the road before you begin traveling full-time.

There are a TON of resources out there for effective and efficient home-schooling programs. And the best part? So many of them are absolutely free! Remember, when teaching your children, no two learn the same way.

Take the time to truly understand how your children learn, and then find programs and resources out there that accent their learning ability. If they like to be more hands-on in their learning, find a few great workbooks and kits that you can introduce to them so that they can learn by seeing and feeling. Again, the resources available for homeschooling parents are in abundance.

• Utilize technology to continue their homeschooling education.

Who knew how many thousands of resources there really were online for homeschool students? With one simple search, you’ll have more than enough programs and templates to look into to then decide what program is best for you and your children.

The best part? Homeschooling allows you to change course if you need to. If you have your child begin with one program and it doesn’t seem to be a good fit, changing is something that you have control of and can do.

The beauty of homeschooling is that you are helping your child explore and discover themselves by accenting their strengths and their own personal likes and dislikes.

• Set a schedule that works for you and your family.

A typical homeschool day doesn’t truly look anything like a regular public or private school day. There are no “set” school hours per se or changing from one classroom to the other. Your homeschool classroom can be wherever you want it to be.

Remember, your on the road full-time so finding fun places that have school along the way is part of the fun! Feel like spending the day learning at the local library? Sounds like the perfect classroom setting. What about creating an environment where you get to explore the great outdoors learning all about nature? A homeschool lesson made in science heaven!

Wherever, and whenever you want to learn, is entirely up to you. Your school day can start at 6 am, 8 am, 10 am or noon. There are no school bells ringing to say you children are late or to shuffle them down the hallway from room to room. As the homeschool educator, you decide the schedule and then stick to that schedule with your children.

• Get excited about homeschooling on the road!

Think about how many kids sit behind a desk and just learn and read information from a textbook day in and day out, without ever truly getting to experience any of it? You and your family can experience it all!

If you are starting on a homeschooling topic on animals and their habitats, round-up your crew and find the nearest zoo or state park to go explore. See how many animals you can see and discover and spend the day learning while actually being right in the middle of the lesson as well. Talk about a great way to bring those lessons to life!

Homeschooling on the road is a once in a lifetime experience. If you have the chance and the ability to let your children learn about the world, while actually being able to explore it at the same time, seriously consider giving it a try. The knowledge just waiting to be explored is out there, so grab it by the horns and add anything and everything that you want to your homeschooling experience!
