My Jonathan (age 11, & a meteorologist in the making) adores his new climate/weather kit!
Amazing readers, over the next few weeks I’d be so grateful if you could help me make Simple Homeschool even more useful and inspiring by giving me some helpful feedback.
Today I’d love to hear your thoughts about these weekend links posts: How would you rate them on a scale of 1-10? If you wouldn’t rate them a 10, how could I improve them to make them better for you?
Click here to leave a comment, and if you could keep your words on the positive/constructive side, that would be so appreciated. Thank you!

How my 6-year-old taught me to love cooking
I give them a 9 as I often have read many of them, but sometimes I haven’t. I would appreciate either a pic or a teaser sentence about the article as sometimes the link title isn’t enough.
I also am curious what podcasts you listen to, if any. There are so many helpful, encouraging and inspiring ones that it would be nice to have some featured for my Sunday Laundry & Meal Planning Day. Even ones your children may enjoy.
On that note, it would interesting to see what specific episodes, shows or movies struck a chord with your family to show that isn’t always blogs & books to recommend inspiration. Again, something that doesn’t require too much time to type into a list.
Thank you Jamie!
I enjoy the links! Please keep them coming!
I enjoy these weekend link posts very much. 10! Thank you 🙂
Definitely a 10. I always look forward to the weekend reading links. One of my favorites.
Love the weekly links! Definitely reading them encourages me in our homeschooling journey. I would love more:) The eagle cam ink was great and other links for kids would be very welcome!
I too am really grateful for these links posts! I also read the links post on Fridays from Modern Mrs. Darcy and one thing that I appreciate her doing with those articles is excerpting a particular phrase/sentence/paragraph that has caught her attention or seems particularly meaningful. It helps me decide if I want to read the article or not and even if I don’t read the article, I can still get a sense of it immediately. I would love to have that here too.
I’d give the weekly links a 10! It gives me a chance to read articles I might not see otherwise. I only wish you’d give more links each week! More to read 🙂
I like having some links to look at, although I would say I only get to reading it about half the time. I do appreciate it when I take the time to read some of them. I also like seeing what you are all reading and sometimes it gives me ideas for my own family. I’d give it a 10 because I think its well done.
10! I always look forward to getting my email with the links post in it. I read Melissa’s blog regularly, but not the others, so I enjoy the links to their posts. And I also really enjoy seeing what y’all are reading–it gives me ideas for books to add to my own reading list and sometimes for books to read aloud with my daughter.
I enjoy the weekend links emails. I often don’t get to them until a week or two later but I enjoy the links to good articles as well as good book suggestions. Your kids are all older than my little guy so I rarely find books for him in these emails. However I do find some of the stuff you are reading is exactly what I’m looking for or I tag books at my local library to read later based on your recommendations. Keep the weekend links!
I know I’m a little late to this post, but I had to chime in and say that these posts are among my “must read” favorites in my feed. I LOOOOVE them and have found so many wonderful ideas and such through them. Thank you!
