A child who has been highly regimented or has had a traumatic school experience may need time to relax and rediscover their interests, and find the joy in learning again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And as a parent you may have specific ideas of what learning and education should look like. These ideas may not be accurate. It&#8217;s common to miss much of natural learning simply because it doesn&#8217;t look a great deal like school and the results are not always obvious &#8211; but they definitely exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A deschooling period can help your child relax and recover, and give you the time and space to learn about your new, rather different, lifestyle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For these reasons I believe intentionally deschooling is essential for a smooth transition to homeschooling, and increases your chances of successfully homeschooling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:67px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of deschooling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s why deschooling is totally worth the time it takes and the uncomfortable feelings it may cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>You won\u2019t waste (as much) money on curricula.<\/strong> You won\u2019t buy out of anxiety, and you\u2019ll buy what suits you because you KNOW what suits you.<\/li><li><strong>Your children will want to learn.<\/strong> Really truly! It may take a while for their natural curiousity to rekindle, but once it does they\u2019ll be unstoppable.<\/li><li><strong>You won\u2019t have power struggles.<\/strong> Honestly. You don\u2019t need to force your child to do anything \u2013 if you homeschool right, they\u2019ll learn in leaps and bounds without coercion.<\/li><li><strong>You won\u2019t have panic attacks<\/strong> because you\u2019re \u2018doing it all wrong\u2019. These occur because what you\u2019re doing IS the wrong fit for you, but you feel that you have to do it anyway. You don\u2019t!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Willing to try it? Let&#8217;s get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:61px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Do I Deschool?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>During deschooling try to ignore curriculum and the &#8216;shoulds&#8217; in your head.<\/strong> Don&#8217;t worry about falling behind, as this period of rest and rediscovery will allow greater success once you begin structured work again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This period will also allow your child to settle back into their natural bodily rhythms. Sleep, toileting, eating, drinking and learning is all scheduled for the school child. They may be sleep-deprived after years of getting up earlier than their body likes, and sleep quite a lot to begin with. Maybe they won&#8217;t want to have breakfast until they&#8217;ve been up for three hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Relaxing into it will help them get back to their normal and feel fresh and revitalised quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:53px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deschooling Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So what are you actually meant to DO while deschooling? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trust me, you don&#8217;t just have to sit and stare at the wall- there&#8217;s a whole wide world of non-school activities out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Lots of unstructured time &#8211; <\/strong>This may be stressful at first, as a child who is accustomed to their time being regimented may be unable to work out what to do to fill in that time. However, the following ideas will help to reintroduce them to their independence.<\/li><li><strong>Reading &#8211; <\/strong>Just for fun, no book reports or assigned reading allowed! Visit the library and go shopping together for books (op-shops are great for building a large library cheaply). Read aloud to them, no matter their age. Listen to audiobooks while doing other activities.<\/li><li><strong>Nature time &#8211; <\/strong>Rediscover the peace and beauty of nature. Take long rambling walks, examine plants, fungi and insects, have picnics, go swimming.<\/li><li><strong>Arts, crafts, and other activities &#8211; <\/strong>Try any kind of art, craft or hobby that sparks your interest.<\/li><li><strong>Mindful use of technology &#8211; <\/strong>Often, technology can numb us to paying attention to ourselves. It&#8217;s incredibly easy to distract yourself from your issues and feelings by mindless surfing. Instead, use it wisely. Watch TED talks, find tutorials for other activities, and watch documentaries.<\/li><li><strong>Homemaking &#8211; <\/strong>It&#8217;s never too early to learn skills in cooking and cleaning. Even simple skills like learning to turn the washing machine on empowers children. And once they&#8217;ve mastered each skill they&#8217;ll be contributing meaningfully to the household.<\/li><li><strong>Get moving &#8211; <\/strong>Physical activity is a wonderful way to relax mind and body. Take younger children to the playground, go for walks or bike rides, go to the skate park or try an activity like trampolining or parkour.<\/li><li><strong>Join a homeschool group &#8211; <\/strong>Finding people who are doing what you are is a great normaliser. If your child feels &#8216;different&#8217; this can reassure them that they&#8217;re not, while giving you great support.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:71px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fearlesshomeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Most-learning-is-not-the-result-of-instruction.-It-is-rather-the-result-of-unhampered-participation-in-a-meaningful-setting..png\" alt=\"Most learning is not the result of instruction.
