Helping Muslim homeschool mothers manage their meaningful homeschool
Asalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies. A lot of you enjoyed reading my last blog post ‘my first week of homeschooling’ and wanted to know more about how I recovered from a painful start. Yes, recovered! And I’ll be honest, recovery certainly didn’t come overnight. That pressure I felt lasted for a good few […]
Read MoreAsalamu alaykum ladies, A couple of days ago I asked if you would like an insight into how my first week of homeschooling went a few years ago, and many of you were interested, so here it is. So, my daughter did not go to kindergarten/nursery and I loved having her at home with me; […]
Read MoreAsalamu alaykum ladies, alhamdulillah its Jumuah today. Since many of us are knee-high in homeschool planning, I thought I would share a few tips that can help save some pennies.

Read MoreAsalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies. I hope you’re having a nice weekend.

Read MoreAsalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu ladies, I posted a poll on my Instagram yesterday asking that if it is was possible for a homeschool mom who is physically present with her children most of the day, to still be ‘absent’. The majority of you, (90%!) agreed, and I’d have to say I would absolutely […]
Read MoreAsalamu alaykum ladies. Homeschool boredom is something I have personally experienced myself, as are all the topics I discuss on my blog. It’s moments during your homeschool season that begin to feel monotonous, and you begin to lose interest in anything remotely to do with planning teaching. It’s not the same as homeschool burnout, which […]
Read MoreAsalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu Sisters. We’ve spoken extensively about the home-school balance, creating an environment which sparks curiosity and ensuring our Home takes precedence over school.
