CHM173: Why Slowing Down Helps Kids Thrive with Leslie Martino
from Christian Moms Cafe (formerly Christian Homeschool Moms)
In this episode, I chat with homeschool mom and author Leslie Martino about her book The Joy of Slow Schooling and why giving ourselves permission to slow down in homeschooling can actually lead to deeper learning and more joy. If you’ve ever felt pressured to rush through lessons, compare your kids, or keep up with rigid schedules, this conversation will encourage you to embrace a gentler, more peaceful rhythm that nurtures both your children’s curiosity and your family’s connection.Check out Leslie and support her work at: https://lesliemartino.com/---🔔 Announcements: Doors are open for new members at the Christian Women Podcasters Network!Are you a Christian podcaster sharing about faith, family, health, or practical life helps?📢 Get a free listing and more exposure for your podcast!-Sign up at: https://christianwomenpodcasters.com///✍Apply to be on the show: https://www.honeybook.com/widget/demetria_zinga_consulting_244093/cf_id/67d97e103753ac00254305ea🎹Virtual Piano Lessons for Homeschoolers/After-Schoolers (& curious adults, too!): http://www.readandrhythm.com▶️Join me on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@momzestlife/—
