Welcome to the 441st edition of the Carnival of Homeschooling where home school families share their homeschool wisdom with us from all over the world via their blogs.

This Week

Over at Why Homeschool  Janine shares 10 things I have learned about educating children over our 15 years of homeschooling.

  Sharon from over at Awakening Your True Self shares: " There is much fanfare over the first day of the New Year and many people make resolutions about things that they will start or stop doing when January 1st rolls around. I do not limit myself to starting over on the first day of January, as sometimes the early days or months of a new year seem more like what I wanted to leave behind than what I planned to carry forward. " Creating the Life You Want To Live


Sola Gratia Mom shares The Wisdom of a Weed I need to weed my garden more often, so I don't have those weeds that take up residence and are difficult to remove. There is much wisdom in the weeds....


Kerin from over at Vocabuverse is still writing a dictionary! Be sure to take a look at this clever rhyme What is 24 Hour Time ?

Jennifer encourages us to remember that Sometimes, It’s Okay To Turn Back over at Home Grown Mommy


Carol asks: "Do any of you, like me, have curriculum sitting on your shelf, that if you are honest with yourself, you will probably never use? I want to share some experiences I’ve learned about money and homeschooling in a podcast with guest Susan Raber." Read more about Money Myths Homeschool Moms Believe.
