Welcome to your family homeschool summer! You deserve it! Take time right now to pause. Don't overfill your calendars, don't plan too much. What do you want your days to look like? Do you want them spent relaxing and reading books, playing outside all day, or just watching TV? The summer is yours to do what you please; take a break and find out what you all are craving.

At my house, the kids love spending their entire day in the pool and eating. I like to give them the freedom not to have much of a schedule or routine outside of eat, swim, eat, swim. We will also attend the Inspire Beach and Splash Pad Park Days. They love those!

I will attempt to add in a little math and a lot of reading this summer. I like to help them keep their math skills up but in a low-pressure kind of way. I will encourage a lot of board game playing this summer, audiobook listening, documentary watching and, of course, lots of time with friends and family.

Go slow, spend a week or so really thinking about what you want your summer days to look like. Ask your kids what they hope for too!

I hope you enjoy these first few days of Summer and that we see you at one of our many Inspire summer events!

Hi everyone! I am a mom of 3 awesome kids ranging in age from 10 to 6 years old. My husband and I are high school sweethearts and have been married for 16 years. Having homeschooled our children over the last 7 years in 3 different states, I've found homeschooling here in California, especially with Inspire Charter, has been a great fit for our homeschool journey. I am grateful for our ability to homeschool so freely and I aspire to assist other families with their own homeschool adventures!
