Fourth week getting the hang of it !!!!

We had an awesome week Alhamdullillah , 

started the week with a mindfulness and craft session with the homeschooling group.

We were able to meet new friends and get to know the friends we made at the first park day we had on week 2.

 Enjoyed lunch and play time afterwards and went to the library,we spent all day out and had a great start of the week.

We have been trying out our schedule and new Routine, which is slowly starting to take shape, not 100% there but we are taking our time.

Lots of learning happening, and definitely some high and low moments, but every time the kids are asked what they prefer they answer,homeschooling, Alhamdullillah.

First week of Homeschooling

Assalam Alaikum wa rahmatullah : Last week I started with the preschool curriculum for my son,which is nearly 4 years old,and also started toddler activities for my 2 year old daughter.
My 10 year old started his holidays,so he is going to be home-schooled as preparation for year 6,and also in Islamic studies,inshallah.
I have to say it was a challenging week and I learned a lot, about my children,about teaching them,and also enjoyed looking at them engaging in learning,subhanallah ,it truly is a blessing,and alhamdullillah ,I made this decision that brings so much joy, and gives my time a purpose.I feel I'm doing something good with my time and not longer feel guilty for wasting it,alhamdullillah.
My son is picking up information like a sponge, and the best of all,understands who Allah is ,and can answer a lot of questions, subhanallah,only after one week.
