Listen in on my chat with Gwen Little as we discuss the unique challenges and benefits to homeschooling an only child.
Welcome to the show notes for Episode #91 of the Homeschool with Moxie podcast!
As a former classroom teacher, now homeschooling mom of five, I love to equip and encourage other homeschooling families.

Tips for homeschooling an only child
- You don’t have to teach everything on your own

- Get plugged in to your community
- Learn life skills & volunteer
- Let your kids explore their passions & interests
- You can give your kids a well-rounded education
