Is it really possible to manage homeschooling and housework without outside help?
Join me as I share how I have learnt to do so as part of the 2020 #write28days challenge.
Managing Homeschooling and Housework
Managing our home while homeschooling can appear to be an impossible task. It seems like we can either have a clean and organised home and do no school or we can have a successful homeschool day but leave the house looking like a tornado has run through it.
Is it really possible to have both?
YES!
Of course, nothing of value comes easily. We need to put in the work. But it isn’t as difficult as we often think it is.
As part of the #Write28Days Challenge, I will share 28 tips in the next 28 days on how it can be done without going mad, starting with adjusting our attitudes and then moving on to the practical tips.
I will link each day’s tip to this 2020 #write28days challenge page by 8pm (Singapore time) and I hope you will pop by and journey with me. Some posts will be scheduled ahead of time because February is a busy month. I have made notes (in brackets) on when the post will go live.
