Easy online writing for kids for a happy homeschooling year!

August 2, 2021 by Julie Polanco

Online writing for kids can be a lifesaver when you homeschool several children. It encourages independent work and allows you to focus on the kids that need one-on-one attention. But, how do you find a program that engages your elementary-aged kids and teaches them, too? After all, teens have access to imaginative learning projects that …

Awesome Imaginative Learning Projects Your Special Teen Will Love

Best Writing Websites for Kids with Imagination

April 23, 2021 by Julie Polanco

Since my kids are all teens and young adults now, a lot of newer homeschooling  moms (especially this past year! LOL) ask for my advice. But, some of the things that I used to recommend aren’t available anymore. So, I look for writing websites for kids as well as printed materials that I think are …

Fun Writing Activities Inspire & Teach Your Teens to Love Storytelling

February 4, 2021 by Julie Polanco

Let me start by saying that I do not advocate teaching young children composition skills. Teaching young children how to write often has nothing to do with writing per se, but it has more to do with their enthusiasm for reading and narrating. So, as I talk about writing activities, I am talking about how …

Reading and writing skills are top-of-mind for most parents, and we homeschoolers are no different. That’s why I compiled my favorite homeschool language arts resources below.
