      @@BaileyAcademy hay! Ok, so sometimes, (not all the time) when you go to order something on Amazon, if you aren’t in any hurry to get the item, look to see if they have given you “ no rush” as an option for your delivery time. That way, you can get digital “ credits.” You can use these for buy kindle books, movies, etc, on Amazon in future orders, Hope that helps!

    We will be using some of TGTB and other online resources with PDF option to print as shipping to NZ from USA is INSANE! I have had to do a bit of research and have come across so many useful options. Also, you don't need to print the whole "curriculum" in one go; printer shop option is a no go for us due to being literally hundreds of dollars just for the LA course book, LOL. I will be printing at home weekly so we can weed out the pages that don't really need printed or can be printed B&W rather than using so much color ink if possible. We do use page protectors for dry erase, but just be careful because the ones that say "copier friendly" are matte and won't wipe off the same. We have both types due to inconsistency with what we have available in our local shops. I really enjoyed this video and others you have done. Thank you :)

    Hello! My son is in 5th grade and he hates school. He is having issues with bullies and how to make friends. He is an only child and the things he used to love learning about no longer hold his interest. I’m highly considering doing home schooling for him. I don’t want him to associate learning with being bullied. He is so smart but he doesn’t show it because he “hates school”. Is it a hard transition to start homeschooling at his age and grade level. What videos or other influencers do you recommend I check out? Do you set up an area in your home for “school” time? Do you hold “classes” during the traditional school hours? Do you have to pay for any of the state tests that they need to take to make sure they are learning properly? What is the most surprising thing you learned about homeschooling (a positive surprise)? What is something you wish you had known when you first started homeschooling your kids that you know now? Thank you in advance for answering all of these questions! I truly appreciate the support it will give me.

I really have been feeling convicted to homeschool my 2 kids but am really nervous about the financial aspect as well as if I can physically do it, without spending all day doing and or getting overwhelmed. I have anxiety issues and a few other physical issues that make me really sit and ponder whether I could do it. I would absolutely love to talk with you about any ideas or suggestions you can give me so I can possibly understand all this stuff as it may pertain to my children and their needs. They have been in public school and I have a going to be 6th grader and 3rd grader...
