It is ME

Hi friend—I'm so glad you're here. I’m Jenna, the voice behind Creative Homeschoolers—Let’s be real—homeschooling can feel overwhelming, especially when Pinterest tells you every learning space needs fairy lights and an alphabet wall hand-painted in watercolor. (Spoiler alert: It doesn’t.) I created this space for moms like you—creative, intentional, beautifully imperfect women who care deeply about their children’s growth and want to make learning joyful. Whether you're just getting started or knee-deep in lesson plans and cereal crumbs, Creative Homeschoolers is here to remind you that you are doing enough—and that homeschooling can be peaceful, playful, and completely tailored to your family’s rhythm.

As we wrap up the 2024-2025 school year, I want to share what curriculum we loved and are keeping next year! Do you have any experience with these #?

✅ Musical Multiplication: we love this supplement to help reinforce multiplication facts! You just may find yourself singing the catchy songs throughout the day. This is a supplement from @thegoodandthebeautiful

✅ Spelling You See: @spellingyousee gentle but has helped all my kids excel in learning how to spell, no matter their skill levels.

✅ First Step Reading: We just discovered @memoriapress and the few resources we have used have been perfect for us! The first steps reading has been helping my child with special needs learn to read and we plan to continue using more of their resources.

✅ Math-U-See: We left @mathusee at the beginning of the school year and then immediately regretted it. This program is mastery based and my kids have excelled in their math skills in part because of the in depth explanation and instructions.

Tell me, what are you keeping for your 2025-2026 school year?

Today we had fun learning all about the mummification process. We took a deep dive into a rabbit hole during our lesson from #gatherroundhomeschool #ancientcivilizations! We explored mummies and pyramids today. Watched a ton of fun videos, including a few that showed us the inside of a pyramid. These cute rice Krispy treat mummies were the best treats to go along with them.

Here’s a peek behind the curtain of our homeschool day—where teaching multiple ages means bouncing between ABCs and algebra, snack time and projects. It’s not always picture-perfect, but it’s ours. The rhythm is real, the lessons go beyond the books, and somehow (with caffeine and grace), we make it work.

You have probably heard it too. “Why don’t you just put your kids in Public School so they can be like other kids/they are missing out/they need socialization. But that is the point. We have chosen differently for a reason. We have chosen homeschool for the freedom, the individualized learning, slower pace, and so much more! Why have you chosen to homeschool?

🎨🎨🖌👩‍🎨Today we paint. Who am I kidding we paint every day. I once had a girl from my Co-op class say, “ Miss Jenna you sure do you like to paint!” Straw painting is so fun! To do this fun activity you need:
✅ a straw
✅ diluted tempera paints
✅ paper
✅ a dropper for your paints
✅ a cookie sheet or somewhere to contain the mess!

Happy painting!
