Best of RAR: Becoming Your Child’s Mentor

What would happen if you decided to be your child's mentor rather than their teacher? What if you awakened their wonder and curiosity so that they became the kind of people who thirst for knowledge and understanding? Today, I’m revisiting a conversation about those very questions that I had a few years ago with Sally Clarkson. I’m lucky to count Sally as a dear friend and I know that her work has been transformational for me and for so many of you. In this episode, Sally shares how we can inspire our kids to become lifelong readers and learners right in our own homes. In this episode, you’ll hear: How to make your homeschool a place of resources for your unique children What is different about being your child’s mentor, rather than their teacher Why modeling curiosity and excitement about learning in your homeschool matters more than any curriculum Learn more about Sarah Mackenzie: Read-Aloud Revival Waxwing Books
