10 Ways to Lighten the Load & Carnival of Homeschooling

I'm at The Homeschool Village today, writing about some ideas that might help make life easier.  As homeschoolers we have a lot to do each day, here are 10 Ways to Lighten the Load and maybe make the day go a bit more smoothly!

Also this week, I'm hosting the Carnival of Homeschooling. On Monday I wrote about 10 Ways to Keep Kids Active in Winter, which will hopefully help lighten the homeschool day too.   

Take some time to go through the links, explore and get inspired!
