Special Replay: Help for Homeschooling Distractible Kids with Carol Barnier

A Production of the Ultimate Homeschool Podcast Network.

Help for Homeschooling Distractible Kids with Carol Barnier, podcast Carol BarnierI’ve been the recipient of Carol’s wit and wisdom for years, but I was still inspired by my interview with her. If you have a can’t-sit-still kiddo or you’re a what-did-I-come-in-this-room-for mom like me, you’ll love this episode.

Carol explains:

  • The kind of activity active children need while homeschooling
  • How to work with a child who takes forever to finish a lesson
  • How to help your kids remember how to add and subtract fractions
  • A simple way to make workbook problems fun
  • An advantage of being a distractible mom, and lots more!

Resources we mentioned in the show include, How to Get Your Child Off the Refrigerator and on to Learning, If I’m Diapering a Watermelon, Where’d I Leave the Baby?, and Sizzlebop.com, a community for parents of distractible kids.

MBFLP – Dealing With The Prodigal Child

A Production of the Ultimate Homeschool Podcast Network.

Dealing with the Prodigal ChildIt’s a Christian parent’s nightmare – the child who walks away from the family and the faith they were taught. Is there anything we can do but wait and pray? Carol Barnier, author of (affiliate link!) Engaging Today’s Prodigal: Clear Thinking, New Approaches, and Reasons for Hope, was that child herself, and in this riveting interview she shares what brought her back to Christ and how parents facing a rebellion in their family can take hope – and practical steps – for an eventual return.
