Education Outside The Box: Unschooling, Homeschooling, and Everything in Between

In this episode, we delve into the topic of various schooling (and unschooling) options for our kiddos. Traditional schooling, homeschooling, unschooling and all the in betweens. Jen and Amanda delve into their personal experiences and decisions around this (which have changed and shifted as our lives have) weighing the pros and cons of each method. They highlight the importance of tailoring educational paths to each child's unique needs AND also the practicalities of parenting in a modern world and juggling work/school/etc. for ourselves.
