207. Cycles in Learning and Housekeeping

Brave Writer

What do the laundry cycle and the learning cycle have in common? A lot, actually. Today, we apply KC Davis’s take on laundry to homeschooling.

In her book “How to Keep House While Drowning, KC Davis talks about how the goal of the laundry cycle shouldn’t be to have all your family’s clothes clean at once. The goal is for everyone to have clean clothes to wear that day. The goal is to keep the cycle moving.

We think the same concept applies to homeschooling. The goal of educating your child shouldn’t be linear mastery. The goal is for your child to be able to tap into curiosity, knowledge, and problem-solving at any moment. The goal is to keep the learning cycle going.

Lots of “aha!” moments in this episode– join us as we process it all.
