Natural Development & Play: How understanding the natural stages of human development can help parents better support their children’s learning, and why play is an essential part of this process. Strengths, Intelligences, and Interests: How to identify and nurture your child’s unique learning style by observing what sparks their curiosity, personal shares, and how these strengths intersect with their emotional and intellectual growth.

In this episode, we break down the common pressures and fears many homeschool parents face—like the belief that we need to teach everything or cover every topic from kindergarten to high school. I explain why that simply isn’t true and how embracing life as learning, rather than following a rigid scope and sequence, can be more effective for your child’s growth and development. We explore: The School Mindset Trap: How to shift away from replicating traditional school methods. Natural Learners: How children naturally learn through play, observation, and real-world experiences. Learning is a Learned Behavior: the importance of teaching kids how to learn, rather than focusing solely on facts. Breaking Free from the Conventional School Framework: Why mastering a scope and sequence isn’t necessary for success. The "Village" Approach: How our Day In the Life (DITL) community creates a supportive, collaborative environment for homeschooling parents to grow and learn together. Learning happens best when it's rooted in interests, meaning, real-life problem-solving, and connected relationships. So, take a breath, and know that living is learning, and it’s more than enough.

In this episode, I’m joined by Amy Hughes, a homeschooling mother of nine, Wild + Free contributor, and writer whose words have resonated with many seeking a more intuitive, flexible approach to education. Amy shares the journey that brought her to unschooling and the mindset shift encapsulated in her catch phrase, "Curriculum is for the uninspired days." Together, we explore the freedom that unschooling offers and the role that curriculum plays on those days when inspiration seems to run dry. Amy’s candid reflections on the challenges and triumphs of homeschooling a large family, and her insights into honoring each child’s individual path, will inspire listeners whether they’re just starting out or are seasoned home educators. What You'll Learn: View Curriculum as a Tool: Curriculum is one resource among many. It shouldn’t become a daily crutch, but rather a support for those uninspired days when direction is needed. Connection is Key: The heart of homeschooling is building strong relationships and fostering connection with your children. This is what truly drives learning and growth. Overcome Overwhelm: If traditional methods are too rigid, remember to approach homeschooling with flexibility and creativity. Simplify the process to avoid burnout. Respect Your Child’s Interests: Learning happens naturally when we allow our children the space to explore their curiosities. Use curriculum sparingly as a support system, not a rigid plan. Let Go of Perfection: There is no "right" way to homeschool. Each family is unique, and the journey is about finding what works for you and your children. Find Balance: On those uninspired days, curriculum can help give structure, but the key is to remain flexible and not let it dictate the flow of learning. Connect with Amy: Amy Hughes is a writer, speaker, and Christian parenting coach living on the coast of California with her family of nine. Her work has been featured in Wild + Free, Simplify Magazine, (in)Courage, and more. Amy’s first book is expected to be published in Fall 2025.
