UK Homeschooling Blog Posts
Hi friends! Please browse our library of UK homeschooling blog posts – we have always homeschooled (our kids have never been to nursery or school) and we LOVE it! If you like these posts you might also like our articles on gentle, positive parenting.
Homeschooling Timetable During Coronavirus
This is a bespoke timetable that myself and a friend (who is also a qualified teacher and homeschooling Mum of 4) have put together specifically for parents and carers of primary children during the Coronavirus outbreak. All of the activities are filled in and explained and it is gentle, fun and engaging. There is a new one released each week (for FREE!) and we have just released the BUMPER Easter Crafts & Activities for Kids Bundle (with optional timetable)! For the previous week’s activities and timetable, see week 1 of the Curious Little Monkeys series below.
