The best and encouraging homeschool quotes to help create an effective place to learn lessons of life and truth!

I gotta admit – I never felt as if I wanted to homeschool my kids. I’m not a homeschool mom over here. So when I was kind of forced to last year when the world shut down, I felt flustered and way out of my element.
Let me just say it here and now – thank god for public school.
My kids thrive there.
But what’s good for one may not be good for all so if you are in to homeschooling because it’s what’s best for your family, then hopefully these homeschool quotes can be inspirational to you!

How do you motivate a homeschooled child?

I think this really boils down to what your child is motivated by.
If you have younger kids, your motivation may be play with his or her favorite toy.

For those older ones, you might need to allow some screen time so that they can play their favorite game or spend some time on social media if that’s how your family rolls.
Are homeschooled students smarter?
I wouldn’t say they’re smarter or not as smart. Homeschooled kids usually learn in a different style than kids learn at school and some children thrive in this kind of homeschool environment.
Speaking from experience of having kids in public school, I know with how well they succeed in that setting that trying to pull them out and homeschool them would not be in their best interest.
And not tooting my own horn, but my kids are really smart!
Research does show, however, that homeschool students tend to do better on standardized testing.
Again, this is all whatever works best for you and your family situation! That’s the privilege of this life 🙂
Homeschool mamas out there, education is honest work. No good quote will change the game, but YOU will! Rearing and teaching children in the same place can be super challenging but before you know it you’ll be designing their college dorm room all weepy and whatnot.
