The Home Ed Voices Podcast is a UK-based Home Education Podcast that profiles the lives of home ed families.  You can find out more about the podcast here.

This week I’m talking to Mell from @raisingadaisy on Instragram. We talk about home educating as a single parent, and get into our experiences with negative attitudes against home education and what to do about it. We also talk about how home ed children’s learning and socializing differs when compared to schooled children.

Show Notes:

There weren’t any book recs this week.

However we mention the Badman review of home education in the UK in 2009-10 when discussing veteran home educators in our community. If you would like to know more about that review you can find comprehensive information here.

You can find Mell from @raisingadaisy on Instragram (though please note that as she has a private account and is not obligated to give access to anyone.)

Home Ed Voices Podcast - Ep13 Lyndsay (@Rainbows_and_Wellies)

The Home Ed Voices Podcast is a UK-based Home Education Podcast that profiles the lives of home ed families.  You can find out more about the podcast here.

This week I’m talking to Lyndsay from @rainbows_and_wellies on Instagram. We talk about home educating an only child, and how home edding can provide a safe environment for an autistic child both to learn in a way that suits them, and get the degree of socialisation that feels comfortable to them (in comparison to the ‘coke bottle’ effect.) We also chat about finding your groove when you’re unexpectedly home educating, through community and time spent reflected on the things that are working.

This week I am talking with Leah Boden from Modern Miss Mason. We talk about her work, encouraging home educating and homeschooling parents to adapt the ideas of Charlotte Mason for the modern era we live in today. We talk about how living in the UK means that we get to live amongst living history, and we discuss the importance of prioritizing home education, and balancing our other projects alongside it.
