EP229: Ever felt like you"re drowning in curriculum overwhelm? The secret to Waldorf-without-the-box is creating a custom curriculum for your homeschooling journey. You are not alone! Many homeschooling parents purchase one curriculum after another, desperately trying to follow someone else"s plan only to feel perpetually behind and increasingly frustrated.  Rudolf Steiner, the founder of Waldorf education, never wrote a standardized curriculum. Instead, he encouraged teachers to observe their students and craft lessons specifically for them. When we embrace this freedom rather than trying to follow someone else"s plan, our homeschooling journey truly transforms.  A "boxed" curriculum can be a wonderful and necessary resource, but only if you embrace the key principles of your homeschool approach, understand the natural rhythm and needs of your family, and lean into simplicity and flexibility.  Find the Show Notes here  https://artofhomeschooling.com/episode229/ Join Plan It Out inside the Inspired at Home community https://artofhomeschooling.com/inspiredathome  Send Jean a text message.
