Homeschool Routines

Candy is calling all homeschooling moms to post their current homeschool routines.

Since Kathrynne is only 8 months, we don't do a lot. But here is some of what she does:

  • Listens to Classical music.
  • Participates in Family Devotions by sitting on Mom's lap and learning to sit still.
  • Is learning basic sign language ("Yes," "No," "Please," "Thank You," "All Done").
  • Sings hymns with Mom and sometimes in Family Devotions (she is learning to sing and usually will "sing" with us. She sang so loud during singing time at church last Sunday that you could hear her over everyone. It was so precious!).
  • Sits on Mom's lap and listens to Mom read (at least 15 minutes per day).
  • Sits and listens while Mom reads a story to her, reads verses to her from her verse book, and reviews her catechism cards (We try to do this everyday.).
We are mostly trying to focus on reading to her, talking with her, playing with her, and teaching her obedience (we have a long road to go on that one, but she is slowly learning!).

I'd love to hear what other moms do with their younger children. I need all the encouragement, inspiration, and ideas I can get!
