Homeschooling is Time Consuming

 

One of the most perplexing questions I often receive about homeschooling/unschooling is:

How long does it take everyday?

Well, the easy answer is all of the time and none of the time.  

Sounds like a riddle, right?!

By all of the time, I mean your kids are always learning and it all counts.  So time spent reading reviews on Amazon counts.  Time spent discussing current events over breakfast counts.  Time spent texting friends to make arrangements to meet up counts.  Time spent in the kitchen baking all afternoon counts.  Time spent watching an engaging documentary counts.  Time spent creating digital advertising on Canvas counts.  

Reading, research, written communication, social studies, science experimenting, math, history, technical writing, critical thinking.

So yes, all the time in the day is consumed homeschooling/unschooling.  

But also, none of the time as this is time spent living with your kids.
