If you’re contemplating whether or not homeschooling on the road is the right choice for you and your family, this is the read for you. Anytime a big decision that can change the total dynamic of your family is being considered, weighing out the benefits is an absolute must.

As a mom who homeschools our children on the road, I can tell your first hand that there are AMAZING benefits of homeschooling on the road. Not only has it strengthened our family in ways I never thought possible, but it’s also strengthened our faith as well.

While everyone’s thought process and pros and cons may vary, here are 5 amazing benefits for why you should consider homeschooling on the road!

Here Are 5 Amazing Benefits of Homeschooling On The Road:

#1 – Your family bond will grow each and every day

I always knew that our family bond was strong, but I didn’t realize that there was room for improvement until our family moved into an RV. Before the RV life, we spent our days doing our schooling, and then breaking up and branching out doing other activities that we each found of interest as well. And while that was fine, I didn’t realize how much time we were actually spending apart.

Once we moved and started homeschooling on the road, our bond has seriously become unbreakable. Our children are best friends and we’re best friends with them. My husband and I have more time to talk together, explore together and share in the activities with our children as well. The time that we spent cleaning our house or organizing a bigger space is now filled with bonding moments and memories being made.

#2 – Homeschooling on the road teaches your children about the world

It’s no secret that I’m a fan of learning from books, but what about all the “life lessons” that your children are missing out on by sitting behind a desk? When your house is on wheels, your learning for the day can literally be ANYTHING that you want. Tour a state park and learn about the birds? Easy. Take a trip to a local museum and view the varying art pieces? Perfect.

On the road homeschooling is the perfect way to combine the traditional homeschooling learning with real-world learning as well.

#3 – Your travels can literally be guided by what you want to show your children

Life is short! Each and every one of us has a limited time on this Earth to make the most of our life and I’m a firm believer that homeschooling on the road can help you and your family live the best day, every day. Traveling and education can absolutely be combined to provide a truly epic homeschooling experience for your children.

#4 – RV homeschooling is a way to minimize the clutter and chaos in your life

Decluttering is really, really popular right now, and I’m actually in agreeance with the importance of living a minimalist life. We don’t NEED all the “stuff” to teach our children and to have them interact and live a “normal” life. As a matter of fact, the less clutter and items that you have to teach and distract them, the more easily focused they can become.

When you homeschool on the road, you don’t have a ton of room for resources, so you have to do the research and find out the best options for the space that you have. This, in turn, gives you confidence that you’re children will learn from what they have, and not to clutter their brains and minds with “things” that you think they need.

#5 – Your homeschooling path can be chosen by your children

This may be one of the coolest aspects of deciding to live a life on the road…you can actually sit down and communicate with your children about what they want to see and experience in their homeschooling curriculum. What other educational programs in a traditional setting offer those kinds of options? Talk about an awesome way to get your children excited and involved in their homeschooling lesson plans!

Concluding, if you’re on the fence about homeschooling on the road, don’t be! There are so many amazing benefits that you and your family will blossom from. Our decision to pack up and live a life on the road is one that I’ll never, ever regret and I have noticed an amazing increase in the interest and involvement of our children in our homeschool planning activities!
