Description

Homeschooling and homemaking will clash if you don’t set priorities. In this conversation with Leigh Nguyen from Little by Little Homeschool, we get practical about dividing attention between lessons and housework, why year-round homeschooling (6 on / 1 off) helps, and how to set daily “trigger” tasks so the house doesn’t tank your mood.

You’ll learn:
   how to choose a few daily basics and let the rest wait
   why a break week is for resets, projects, and mental space
   how kids’ chores build skills (and buy you margin)
   what to do when you can’t find a mentor—and how to be one
