I had the opportunity to listen to some of the sessions in last year’s NOT BACK-TO-SCHOOL SUMMIT, and not only were they FREE, they were FABULOUS! Many of the most popular homeschooling‬ voices and mentors will be sharing their wisdom again this year.

Now’s the time to sign up for this year’s completely free, completely online summit!

Two years ago when I needed to shake things up in our homeschool and introduce something fresh, I found my answer in Time4Learning. It can be used as a complete online curriculum, but we used it as enrichment and the kids enjoyed the animated learning games.

Worth checking out if you’re also looking for something new this year!
