As homeschoolers, we know how important it is to plan out our homeschool year. When we plan out our year there are many things we consider. We think about what days we will take off throughout the year. What lessons we are doing each day. What curriculum we are going to use for each subject. And the list can go on. One of the things we neglect to plan for are those hard homeschooling days that will show up unexpectedly.
It doesn’t matter what season you are in or how long you have homeschooled you will have those hard homeschooling days. Those days that you wish you can press the reset button. I had my share of hard homeschooling days throughout my 6 years of homeschooling my son.
We don’t always have smooth homeschooling days and that’s okay. It is actually normal. When those hard days try to creep up on me I know what to do. I realized that I don’t have to end my day on a bad note. When I have those hard days I have learned to switch them around and turned them into a blessing.
All I needed to do was to plan for those days like I plan for anything else. If I have a plan in place I will know exactly what I can do to turn those hard homeschooling days into a blessing.

This is a great post! I’m considering to home school in the future. Thank you for sharing 🙂
You’re welcome, Dawn! I’m so glad you enjoyed the post. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
Thanks for the great reminder! We all have been there.
At our house, we just pause school and create some fun – get outside, enjoy some fruit, snuggle and read, or just play! We can always school another time.

I am so glad you are reaffirming us that hard homeschooling days are normal and that’s ok! Not all days are smooth here for sure but we need to be encouraged always that we are doing a good job and as our kids do, we also have our not so good days! 🙂
