Show Me Homeschool Podcast

Are you struggling with a curriculum that just isn't working for your homeschool? In this episode of Show Me Homeschool, hosts Joe and Erin dive into the topic of when the curriculum doesn't work and how it can negatively impact your homeschool. They discuss the sunk cost fallacy and the pressure parents feel to stick with a curriculum they've invested time and money into. They also explore the importance of prioritizing the needs of your child and fostering a healthy homeschool environment.

Remember, the best curriculum is the one that gets used. Don't let fear or personal struggles hold you back. Trust in God's provision and create a home learning lifestyle that is sustainable for your family. Tune in to discover practical tips and insights on how to navigate the challenges of choosing and adapting curriculum, and learn how Show Me Homeschool can provide support and encouragement for your homeschool journey.
