It’s a relief to see other parents use screen time (in moderation, of course) to keep life with wonderful, rowdy kids under some semblance of control! Sometimes I get in my own head about it when I see other people’s seemingly screen-free child-rearing. 😬

Hahaha me too! But then I read Catherine's series and see that while most people who homeschool absolutely love it, we all approach it very differently. 😊

I for one, appreciated the very thoughtful and boundaried approach to regular screen time!!

Yes. I would not have my newsletter or feel sane if I didn’t implement some screen time at this point in our life. :)

Nice mug! And, if they’re getting up at around 5 am and playing hard, it makes sense they would need to go to bed around 7.

I completely relate to being too young to have a heart attack whilst taking my three year old anywhere 😂 Mine neither naps or sleeps through the night though so pray for me Diana!! I remember Ginny Yurich saying on an episode of her 1000 hours outside podcast that the hardest thing about homeschooling is toddlers and I felt so seen.

Since writing this our 3 year old is starting to drop his nap and yes...Ginny Yurich is correct. Praying for you!!!
