Homeschooling~Getting Started Part 2:Clubhouse Edition

Are you just getting started in homeschooling? Or are you a homeschooler that has hit a bump in the road and needs a little more encouragement?

This episode is for you then.

Our September Theme in the Honey! I'm Homeschooling club on Clubhouse was; Homeschooling- Getting Started. I recorded two of our Clubhouse conversations from that month and this episode is Part 2. We welcomed many new homeschoolers this year and we want to make sure that each family that is in the beginning of their journey (actually at any stage in their journey) gets the support they need. This is one way that we do that.

In This Episode

In this episode of Homeschooling~Getting Started, Part 2 we discuss:

  • Exploring values and guiding purpose
  • Building our family rhythms
  • What a week looks like in our unschooling family
  • Expectations and fears
  • How different homeschooling families deal with change
  • Our role as parents in homeschool life
  • Ways we can support self directed learning
  • What you can do when your child has learned beyond the level that you can teach them

If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, you can go back and listen HERE.

Robyn Robertson hosts Honey! I'm Homeschooling The Kids, a conversation that goes far beyond curriculum choices and into the heart of what it means to learn and grow together as a family. This isn't about presenting a perfect blueprint; instead, each episode feels like an honest chat with a friend who gets it, exploring the nuanced realities of choosing an educational path outside the conventional system. You'll hear from a diverse range of voices-experienced homeschoolers, unschooling advocates, educational researchers, and parents just figuring it out-all sharing their stories, challenges, and triumphs. The discussions naturally weave through parenting philosophies, cultural perspectives on childhood, and practical advice for nurturing a rich, engaging home life. Tuning into this podcast means finding a supportive community and thoughtful reflections on creating a family culture that prioritizes connection, curiosity, and joy. It’s for anyone curious about alternative education or simply seeking inspiration for a more intentional and fulfilling life with their kids.
