Welcome to our Homeschool Resources website!

Why do I have this homeschool resources website? Well, in 2012, one of my kids dropped out of school after about a year of bullying which went unnoticed because it only happened in the playground. He was emotionally and mentally hurt by the experience. Not wanting to hurt him even more, I decided take him out of school and we started to look into homeschooling. When we first started homeschooling, we didn't know anything about it. So, I scoured the internet to learn more about this new world we came into. Since then, I have collected a lot of homeschool resources. I’ve put them here, there and everywhere. In short, it wasn't organized.

Anyway, after a few weeks or probably months into homeschooling, some of my friends started asking me about our homeschooling journey. It came to a point that I had so many people asking me about it that I decided to create a website to put everything that I have learned along the way. When our family started this journey, we didn't really have anyone to mentor us. There was so much information in the internet that I thought of making it simpler for anyone looking into it.

I wanted to share everything that I know so others who would like to take the same path that our family did, would be able to have some help that they needed. At the same time, I would be able to have a place to put all the resources that I have collected over the years.

Homeschooling my little boy reminded me of this poem that I read many years ago:

The Little Chap Who Follows Me!
Author: Unknown

A careful man I want to be;
A little fellow follows me.
I do not dare to go astray
For fear he'll go the self same way.
I cannot once escape his eyes,
Whate'er he sees me do, he tries.
Like me he says he's going to be;
The little chap who follows me.
He thinks that I'm so very fine,
Believes in every word of mine.
The base in me he must not see;
The little chap who follows me.
I must remember as I go
Through summer's sun and winter's snow,
I'm building for the years to be;
The little chap who follows me.

So, yes, I’m building up this little chap, and it’s good to have all the homeschool resources that I have in one place so I can easily retrieve them when I need them. It can also help my friends who might consider going through this homeschooling journey.

Homeschooling and the Law

Homeschooling is legal in a lot of countries including Australia, New Zealand, Canada, United States of America and the United Kingdom. In some countries however homeschooling is quite regulated and other countries even outlawed it. In some countries, even if homeschooling is not moderated by law, homeschooling is not socially acceptable and therefore does not exist. So, if you intend to homeschool your child, make sure that you know the laws in your area first. Sometimes in one country, states or provinces differ with their regulations as well so make sure that you are aware of them all.
