In my opinion, family is the best part of homeschooling. I love being their, spending time with and teaching my children. I love being with them. They are great. Not everyone can say that about their children, and I do believe that, if you cannot get along with your child, homeschooling may not be the best choice. For those families, charter or private schools may be an option.
However, for those of us who truly do not mind spending many hours a day with our children, homeschooling is a wonderful option. And it is an option that helps our family to grow closer every day.
I love doing things with my children as a family, and we have had many good experiences this way. I have taught them to bargain shop and yard-sale. They have learned how to take care of their future homes. We have had many baking and cooking days together. And we have spent countless hours reading to each other.
We have also spent numerous hours creating things like family newsletters, holiday gifts and forms of entertainment for our family and friends.
In wrapping up this series of articles, I would like to say that the time that you spend with your children, your family time, is the best motivation for what a homeschooling family can accomplish.
