How to Choose the Best Homeschool Curriculum

I am in a number of social media homeschool groups, and one question I see over and over from new homeschoolers is this: what is the best curriculum to use for my child?

You want the curriculum you choose to encourage your child to want to learn about the subject matter, whether that's math or history.

Any curriculum you choose for any subject should spur in your child a love for learning. READ ON.

It is a well known fact that every individual has individual needs, and homeschooling allows you to create a learning environment that suits your child particularly. When you involve your child in that process, you create buy-in and ownership of your homeschool within your child. READ ON...​
