Homeschool Insights & tips

 


Hi friends, 

My hope in creating this page is to provide both veteran & newbie homeschool families encouragement, resources, help and support. On this page it is my goal to share tips and insights I've gleaned from my experiences homeschooling over the past 6 1/2 years & real life struggles & successes in our homeschool journey. It is a bit of a learning curve if you are just jumping into homeschooling and I hope to give you a safe landing place & to help you ease into this phase of your school years.

Happy schooling friends! I am excited to share ideas, adventures, thoughts, curriculum or products we love, ideas & tools that will help make your homeschool journey a successful one :) 

So glad to have you here, I look forward to "meeting" you here and having you along for the journey!

Riverside Geyser O ver the years, traveling has been one of the biggest highlights for my family & I. It's something we love to invest in and make a reality as often as possible. My hope for you friends, is that traveling during this past crazy 14-15 months (of life during the pandemic & all the chaos that has ensued) has been a possibility/reality in one way or another, but for those who've had to put travel plans on the back burner (perhaps due to numerous trips being cancelled or forfeited due to the pandemic) maybe it's time to pull those plans back onto the front burner, crank up the heat & get yourself ready for a trip you won't forget. Join me while we talk about one of my families favorite places to visit in the United States. We hope you will grow to love it & place it on your must see list (if it isn't there already😉) & that these 10 tips will help prepare you & your family or friends for the grand adventure you are sure to have wh...

The Ultimate comfort food: Easy Green bean tater tot casserole

  Hi Friends,  Today I'm going to share my grandma's delicious green bean tater tot casserole. It is super simple to make, can easily be made ahead and stored in the fridge for later in the week or in the freezer for up to 3 months. I love that it is easy to make, is a great comfort food (similar to shepherds pie without all the extra calories) and the options of what you add in are limitless and can be catered to around every food restriction & easily adapted to fit your families needs.  Ingredients:  ⬥1 1/2-2 cups of cooked green beans (fresh) or 1 14oz can of green beans. *They can be chopped or whole, that is up to you and what fits your families needs best.  ⬥1 can of organic cream of chicken, cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup (choice of soup is up to your preference. I tend to use cream of chicken or cream of celery soup with chicken and cream of mushroom if my meat base if beef). ⬥ 1-2 lbs of ground beef  cooked (or could swap out fo...
