Want to hear what other homeschoolers are doing?

It always helps to talk to others that have experience in homeschooling.  I feel very blessed to have met many people online, at homeschooling forums that have a wealth of knowledge under their belt.

When I first got started in homeschooling back in 2001, I didn’t even have a computer yet!  Can you imagine?!  So, I asked folks at my church.  Well, there were about 3 homeschooling families at the time, and only one woman was experienced enough to really give me any helpful information.  So, she handed me a ton of homeschooling catalogs.  Whoa!  I poured though them for weeks; picking and choosing.  It was fun, but I wouldn’t want someone to have to go through that.

I mean, yes, it should take you quite a while to decide what to use.  You don’t really want to rush in.  However, the internet is really your best searching source.

Now, here are some sites with homeschooling forums that I really feel can help homeschoolers with decisions:

The Well-Trained Mind Forums

The Homeschool Library
