Homeschooling for the first time was anything but smooth sailing for me. You can buy all the fancy tools, curriculums, apps, and books, but if they don’t capture your little one’s attention or you don’t enjoy teaching them, you’re back to square one—having spent a ton of money for nothing. That’s why I created my own materials and homeschool planner. It lets you handpick activities you and your child love, track your budget, and keep everything organized in one place, while doubling as a cherished memory keeper.

I can hardly believe it’s been years since I scribbled the first ideas for this homeschool preschool planner back in 2019—it feels like yesterday! I was a new homeschool mom then, a bit hesitant and nowhere near ready to be apart from my little one for long. So, I did my homework: researching, learning, quitting my corporate job, and starting this blog. Armed with a box of crayons, stacks of early childhood education books, a hefty dose of hope, and a gut feeling that homeschooling could be incredible, I took the leap. And you know what? It was — and still is — amazing.

This planner has been my steady companion through our homeschool adventures. It’s seen us through messy days, joyful ones, those first wobbly letters, and even moments when we both needed extra patience. Homeschooling isn’t always easy—it’s a wild, beautiful ride that tests you, sparks self-doubt, and fills your heart to the brim.

The best part? Being there to watch my child grow. Year after year, I’ve tweaked this planner—not just to teach ABCs and 123s, but to witness them blossom into their own person. I’ve been present for every question, every “aha” moment, every laugh, every curious wonder about the world, every worry. They say childhood flies by in a blink, and it’s true—but those early years lay the foundation for who we become. I was there, shaping that foundation in the most meaningful way I could. Did I get everything right? Probably not—no one can. But I have a happy, confident, curious child who loves to learn, and that’s what matters. And I am happy to create. To all the moms out there who feel the same.

So, here is my latest edition, beautifully illustrated and crafted.

What is the best age to start homeschooling?

The best time to start homeschooling is Pre-K. Homeschool preschool is not regulated in the U.S. because it’s pre-compulsory education, making it the best time to start using a homeschool planner, test whether homeschooling is right for you, and get a sneak peek at what to expect if you choose to continue.
