Schooling Multiple Ages with the Attitude of PLAY

In this podcast episode, Kathy Eggers discusses the importance of finding a family rhythm that works for each unique household, especially when it comes to homeschooling children of various ages. She emphasizes the significance of engaging children in sensory and physical activities in the morning to prepare them for learning. Kathy advocates for a play-based approach to education, encouraging parents to maintain a lighthearted atmosphere while fostering curiosity and critical thinking skills. She also provides insights on integrating subjects like history and science in a concrete manner, managing multi-age learning, and building a foundation of curiosity through exploration and hands-on experiences.For more information, check out Kathy's book, The Homegrown Preschooler and curriculum guide A Year of Playing Skillfully.
