For All Kinds of Families

There is no one mold for the homeschool family. Some have one child while others have twelve. Some families school on the road, some work around therapy for special needs, and some have an actual school room in their home.

You Are Not Alone!

At Home Educating Family we realize you live in a real world, with real issues. You want to know you are not alone. You also want ideas, and we've got those, too. So, want a peek inside the Fall 2011 issue of Home Educating Family?

  • Get ready to meet our feature family the Phillips. They work at My Father's World and chat about how one size does NOT fit all in homeschooling. If you have a smaller family or have been intimidated by the "traditional" homeschool stereotype, you will definitely be encouraged by this article.
  • Read an excerpt from Chuck Colton's book Making Men. This former photographer for Oliver North shares insights about parenting boys.
  • "The Law of Diminishing Returns" addresses pornography--a topic that many families deal with but are afraid to discuss.
  • The holidays are coming, and you often see Norman Rockwell paintings of huge family dinners. In this issue you'll find an article about Norman Rockwell and art projects to do with your children.
  • Enjoy history? Then you'll want to turn to Rob Shearer's article on Athanasius. If you just said "Atha-who?", then you'll definitely want to learn about this Egyptian who significantly influenced church history.
  • Are you a military homeschooler? Melonie Kennedy has just the article for you in "Operation Military."
  • Sarah Groth shares ideas for hands-on fun with your kids in a feature new to Home Educating Family, The Hub.
