103 | What Homeschooling Looks Like Right Now: Five Kids Under Six & Slow Learning at Home

from Wellness Farm Chat · host Brooke Perwal

What does homeschooling actually look like when you’re a mom of five kids under six, including two kindergartners?In this episode of Wellness Farm Chat, I’m sharing what our homeschool days look like right now — slow mornings, gentle rhythms, lots of hands-on learning, and very little pressure. We talk about crafts with glue guns, Play-Doh, LEGO builds, reading piles of books and Bible stories, outdoor time, chores, and kids learning alongside me in the kitchen.Our days are simple and home-centered: staying in, inviting friends over for coffee and playdates, and incorporating weekly painting and sewing projects. This is homeschooling for early childhood — rooted in connection, creativity, and real life.If you’re homeschooling young children, feeling unsure if you’re doing enough, or longing for a slower, more peaceful homeschool rhythm, this episode is for you.I’m proud to partner with ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Better Basics⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, a Canadian company creating FLOUR that is safe, sustainable, and family-friendly .
