One of the most important parts of your writing program is helping your children find a reason to talk to you. So be present. Pay attention. Give feedback that shows you were listening (don’t shush, control, or revise the output; receive it).

Rather than “testing” your kids using artificial measurements, encourage them to be show-offs! Foster an environment where your kids know they are smart and maturing by how well they use the information and experiences they gather naturally.

Let go! Declare this week as “getting it wrong on purpose” week. Push boundaries. Break rules. Make messes. Play. Open the space for creativity, not just accuracy. All the teaching you want to do is possible when children know the space is safe for risk-taking.

Homeschooling is less about filling in blanks at a kitchen table and more about noticing—noticing the way stuff works, noticing that there are names for every type of tree and bird, noticing that sounds are ever present and can be named. ➡️ blog.bravewriter.com/2026/08/10/n...

Have you ever been confounded by the way your child or teen sees the world? You have this clear idea: eat your meals, do your schoolwork, save play for once your responsibilities are complete. Your kids, on the other hand, simply don’t. What do you do then? ➡️ blog.bravewriter.com/the-third-way/

Make time for writing in your family. It can look like poetry tea, movie night, read aloud time, freewriting, or riddle-creating. It might include grammar and spelling but it isn’t essentially that. It's the discovery of what one has to say that is worth preserving.

Nagging, reminding, explaining, nudging – these create anxiety in children which thwarts the creative process. Writing doesn’t thrive under those conditions. Instead, be calm, have low expectations, and provide space.

The key to fostering a love of learning in children is giving up our need to control the outcome. Being willing to roll with the varieties of ways kids discover their world and find their place in it is what leads to passionate learning.

Writing is a distillation of an individual’s mind life. Clarity and accuracy matter but so do inspiration, imagination, critical thinking, and flexible vocabulary. Writing is more than words on a page. It's valuing a writer’s perspective of the world.

Don't feed perfectionism. You write. You make mistakes. You make a big sanctioned mess along with your kids. Laugh at your mistakes! Be more exploratory and less focused on "right" and "wrong.” Play!
