About home educating mum
THIS IS THE TIME FOR HOMESCHOOLING MUMS TO SHINE
Home Educating Mum offers encouragement and resources for women living on rural properties in Australia who are homeschooling their child/ren.
Children's author Joanna Becker, a homeschooling mum of 3, identified a need for home educating mums to be encouraged towards homeschooling that is flexible and embraces any child's natural desire to actively learn in nature as well as to nurture all family members in a loving, colourful home. Her motto as a homeschool mum is "to keep the heart beating in the home" and Home Educating Mum aims to create the same warmth and inspiration, here, for you.
Our inspiring books and activity packs are delivered to your children by mail - keeping the thrill of opening the letterbox alive!
The Home Educating Mum single-term curriculum guide is filled with educational creative activities, designed and produced by children's author Joanna Becker.
Dusty's Wonder Bug
Dusty's Wonder Bug is a magical adventure for a little boy, Dusty, as he tours through a farm and discovers real food growing in nature and delights in the real experiences of magic all around us.
Max's Bright Fly
Max's Bright Fly is a similarly formatted story and takes children with Max through a garden of discovery - how he can create magic for himself using positive thinking, kindness, gratitude, and his own bold statements.
