Make Homeschool Learning Fun.
The main point of homeschooling is to teach your child their core subjects like math, reading, history and science in an environment that you approve of. While it is important for the children to have a good curriculum to learn from there is no reason that you can't make homeschool learning fun.
Instead of just reading about science experiments in your child's text book, you can purchase the supplies and take a hands on approach. There is a big difference in reading about something and experiencing it.
Create a learning game based on a subject your child is learning and get the whole family involved. Give out small prizes to the winners.
Help your child to write a song or a poem about a book they are currently reading and then let them read or recite it to the rest of the family.
Purchase buttons, beads and other small objects for math. Addition, subtraction and multiplication doesn't always have to be on paper.
Take a trip to your local zoo, museum or aquarium. You child can have fun and learn at the same time as they observe different types of animal, ancient artifacts and wild sea life.
If your local zoo has a petting zoo for children they can get up close and personal with some of their favorite animals. They can feed the animals as well.
Some museums have exhibits especially for children where they can take a more hands on approach and touch instead of just looking. Your child can learn how the human body works or even how a bus is operated.
When teaching geography you could have a "day" centered around whatever region, country, state or city you are learning about that day where you serve their native foods and listen to their music.
When you make homeschool learning fun it becomes much more enjoyable and can be a wonderful bonding experience between you and your child
