How To Affordably & Successfully Homeschool Your Children
I got all these books for $22.
well… $22.05
It was a fluke accident I got each book for under $4. I usually go to garage sales and thrift stores and purchase books extremely cheap, but also extremely well used. I was really proud to have found nearly untouched books to add to our collection!
Homeschooling can be done affordably and easily. Each one of these books we can turn into an activity or game, learn a lesson, or make a fun adventure out of it!
I cannot even fully express how much my heart hurts hearing people say they cannot afford to homeschool their kiddos. Talking to many mothers, that seemed to be the main factor: how can we afford it?
There is a giant misconception: it does not cost thousands to homeschool your kids.

I’m often told how people struggle to affordably homeschool their young children and keep them entertained, all while ensuring they learn.
I think we would all be surprised at how much children absorb just being present in an environment.
One of my big mental triggers is a mess… but having young children I need to get over this “trigger”, because hands on activities are the best for learning!
Some fun ideas for on hands learning that is extremely affordable:
Easy Preschool Sensory Activities: I made a simple blog post of our tried + true sensory activities good for almost all ages! At the time of writing it, I had a 1, 2, and 3 year old and tried to make sure I had group friendly activities that were choke- free.

Learning from home has created a bond with my children that has become strengthened. I we have had to learn more about each other and deepen our understanding about each other, which truly have been an amazing gift.
