It’s astonishing just how fast the school year zips along to the end, isn’t it? That’s the beauty of homeschooling. Your kids have immense freedom and all the time in the world to immerse themselves in fascinating topics, to dig deeper and fully explore and make discoveries, so the days fly by quickly for everyone.

Well, you can keep that momentum going by hosting an open house. This is the perfect time to celebrate the end of the school year while also sharing your homeschooling journey with family, friends, and prospective homeschoolers. It’s also a wonderful way to love on your kids and let their accomplishments take center stage while you enjoy watching them bask in the accolades.

One of the best perks about homeschooling is that while you’ve been teaching your kids the three Rs, you’ve also been preparing them for real life. So, let’s talk delegation. Delegating some of the more fun and creative tasks to your kids frees up some of your time while making the most of a teachable moment.
