About this episode
In today’s episode, we get to spend time with Kathryn and Mike Parker from southern Alberta, Canada. These veteran homeschool parents share their wisdom about engaging in homeschool communities, reading great books and discussing them as a family, and taking time to nurture yourself as a homeschool parent. They explain how important it is to remember that we make a lot of mistakes in our homeschooling, but that we need not panic or become unduly concerned. The fruits of homeschooling our kids show up, and usually later in the youth years and older. I love how Kathryn and Mike teach us to seek out an “old school” homeschool mom to discover what is best for our children’s learning and development.
