What Counts as a Homeschool Day? And What About Preschool?

What really counts as a homeschool day?

A mom asked this question after realizing her carefully planned school year was 15 days short. But as I read her question, one small detail completely changed the way I thought about her problem: her oldest child was only in preschool.

That opened the door to a much bigger conversation about what we count as "school," what we count as learning, and whether those two things are really the same.

If you've ever worried about getting in enough school days—or wondered what homeschooling should look like during the preschool years—this episode will give you plenty to think about.
