- Hey mamas! I get so many questions about our daily schedule and that to would try to make some sense of it for you! I hope this helps!
Tell me, do you follow a schedule or more of a rhythm?
✨New here? Introduce yourself in the comments!
I’ll go first:
I’m Christina. I’m married to my best friend, Seth, we have 5 kids (ages 2, 3, 6, 10, & 14), and love our family, Jesus, and adventuring together.
We are passionate about being counter culture, including alternatives to traditional schooling. I have experience as a public school teacher, private school teacher, and homeschool mom!
I love the Charlotte Mason education approach, and many others, but I’d say we are more of an eclectic homeschool-mixing the different aspects of homeschool styles that we love-living books, literature-based learning, Montessori, nature study, and so much more!
Whether you are considering homeschooling, new to homeschooling, considering alternative ways to educate your child, or just looking for some encouragement and inspiration for your motherhood journey, I hope you feel welcome and encouraged here 🤍

When you were sharing that academics don't start before 9am, and sometimes later, is when I "liked" and "subscribed". YES!! Thankyou!! We have littles and that means school looks different than many other homeschools, and that's ok!!!
Haha yup! You don’t even want to know what time we started today!!
i came to say the same as i struggle to get up at the same time. i crawl out of bed most days 😂
me tooo!! lol
Here's an idea for a future video. I would be interested in a video that showed you strewing things for your little ones. Maybe several days worth of strewing all in one video just to give the rest of us ideas on how it works.
Great idea!
@rootedhomelife I second this!
Home Dad here, thanks so much for this. I've only gotten to the strewing part, but that's lovely. We pulled our kids from PS a week and a half ago, for a plethora of reasons, and we're just trying to finish the semester with some joy and creative flow. I've been feeling out warm-up fun for the first "session" and this makes so much more sense than what I was kicking the day off with. I'll keep watching, but I wanted to say thanks!
You’re so welcome! Sorry I missed this!!
Thank you for your honesty!! It was refreshing to see someone who isn’t so strict schedule it completely resonates with my style! ❤ we are starting homeschool this year!
So exciting!!
We run our homeschool very much the same. I love the idea of following a rhythm vs schedule. Just learning through life and spending time with your family!
Love that!
After homeschooling without a schedule for the last 3 years we got a little behind so this year we are doing things on a schedule, to keep on track
Yes! That’s exactly it! Do what works for your family!
You’re the first homeschool mom I’ve come across that “goes w/the flow.” We aren’t morning/schedule people and I feel guilty, like I’m failing at homeschooling. 😬 I love your honestly and transparency! Thank you! 🥰
Do what makes sense for your family!
This has been hands down my favorite homeschooling video. We are moving to Puerto Rico with our four boys (10, 8, 7 & 5) and my heart for years (as a public school teacher) has been to homeschool with them. We will be doing a mix of Charlotte Mason, some curriculum and “unschooling,” which is an unfortunate name. As you were talking, your method aligns incredibly with my vision for how to teach our kids at home. Thank you!
Yay! You’re welcome!!
Sounds very familiar to my day and this is working for my sanity and our home. To hear a vet mom doing things similarly gives me a peace that I am carving out a way that is good for us and alleviating doubt of being too frivolous.
I have always been type A,list, planner, schedule to the t person but this 3rd year of homeschool has been so peaceful. I have not felt overwhelmed nor like a ping pong between 11, 9,6 years old kids and 3yr old twins.
This was encouraging, thank you.
You are so welcome! It’s good to know we’re not alone!
This is one of the most relatable videos I’ve watched on this topic. Subscribed!
Yay! Welcome!!
Great ideas to enhance learning
Love the bible study, good values. Thanks
I’d love to get everything done in a couple of hours when we start formal school, but I definitely think this will work better while I’ve got little kids and babies. I foresee lots of breaks in between and waking when we wake up, thanks for the video!
You are so welcome!!
Hi! New to your channel and appreciating all the great tips!
Can you please send a link to the greatest story ever told you do with your kids prior to Naptime?
Thank you!!
Hi lovely. I really wished this video was a voice over of you explaining but the actual footage of all of what you explained. As it was REALLY hard for me to picture everything by just your words. I would’ve liked more to watch it myself as I’m more of a visual learner.. Otherwise, I normally really love your videos and I’m always binge watching when I’ve missed a few haha. Much love sent to your family 💗
Thank you so much! I don’t like to show my kids on here a bunch, but maybe in the future!
@@RootedHomeLife i appreciate moms who don't show their children on these platforms, maybe you can show just the work part and not their faces? It's a way i see other moms do it!
@@GardenMinistry. I was thinking that!
This sounds lovely. Thank you! (On another note, I just wanted to make you aware that an abortion bill ad popped up during your video. I am totally sure that you would not condone that so I wanted to make sure your knew. God bless!! ❤)
Unfortunately we have no control over the ads that pop up during our videos which is really sad 💔
@@RootedHomeLife Ah! Good to know. Thank you for all you are doing to better the world and by starting where it counts...at home. xoxoxo
Would you have your top picks for 1. Devotion materials 2. Devotion podcasts for young children or songs 3. Biblical teaching materials for homeschooling? Thanks !!
Hi! I do listen to The Greatest Story Ever Told with my youngest three on Spotify and I have so menu favorites for devotions! The Daily Grace Co., Not Consumed, The Ology…
This was so helpful. Love how you do it! Question: how often are you going out in a week? This year for me I feel like there’s so much more things going on with our homeschool groups and we rarely get a full day in of school where we get to take our time like you talked about here.
It really depends on the week! Last two weeks have been very busy so I’m going to try to have a slow week this week! If I don’t get in two full days home I feel a bit disheveled.
How do you get all the work done for the 11 year old... I'm also in New York... it's my first year homeschooling.. I'm like .. ahhhhhh.... what did I get myself into .. I love your style thou . .. really relaxed
My kids are almost 2 and 4. What homeschool resources do you recommend for this age?
Thank you so much for this video! I am looking to home school. My girls are 2 & 8 months… but I want to start with my toddler when she turns 3 in September! What is a good age to start? Of course she learns everyday and I teach her everyday, but I’d love to start something “legit” & more structured. What is a good age to start?
That’s so exciting! You really can start whenever they start to show interest but definitely don’t worry about starting any formal academics too young. Reading, learning through play, exploring outside-all of those are learning, all of those are homeschooling-you don’t have to do formal academics for it to be homeschooling. Little simple learning activities like letter puzzles, number puzzles, and things like that can be a fun way to introduce them to letters and numbers in a gentle way! You have plenty of time! Another great way to get in a homeschooling flow is joining a groups like Wild and Free or another nature-inspired group! There’s so much to be learned outdoors and it really helps their brains and senses develop in a way that can’t happen inside.
@@RootedHomeLife thank you so much!!
Did you get that highlight yet?
do you find it hard to keep up with the house work in between? xx
Haha yes!
