Socialization Simplified: Connecting Homeschool Families Online

This article is in collaboration with Homeschooling.social where socialization is simplified. 

Socialization is particularly important for homeschooling families; however, it can be difficult for them to find social activities that align with their personal beliefs and values. Homeschooling.social aims to make this less challenging for parents. 

Find Local Homeschooling Families

Homeschooling.social makes it easy for parents to connect with other homeschool families within their county, anywhere in the United States. There is no need to know anyone or affiliate with any homeschool groups to use this platform. Whether a family is new to the area, or simply does not have an established network of homeschool families, Homeschooling.social can help them connect with other like-minded homeschoolers. Once they sign up on the website they will be able to look at their county’s event calendar and see if any other parents in their county have created any upcoming events. They will also be able to create their own events.

Empowering Parents When it Comes to Socialization

Homeschooling.social empowers parents to independently organize social activities for their children, ensuring that they retain full control. Parents can browse listed events and select those that best suit their family’s needs. They can create events that align with their own personal beliefs and values and other like-minded families can join their events. Additionally, they have the flexibility to schedule events on their own timetable rather than following someone else’s plan. 

Forum

The forum is where parents can create and find events. When proposing an event, the parent will name and give a description of the event. Next she will choose a category for the event to fall under, such as party, sport, field trip, debate, recital, play, or general. Each county has its own map with preselected locations that parents can choose from. This allows families to meet up with people without having to give out their personal information. Once an event is created, everyone in the county can view it. Each event provides a messaging option that allows people to communicate and ask questions as needed. No need to worry about non-homeschoolers asking about socialization anymore!

Create Your Own Unique Events

While this tool enhances what parents may already be doing in their local support group, it also gives them the opportunity to find homeschool events without requiring membership in a particular homeschool group. Parents can create a park day or a nature walk for their little ones or put together a debate or public speaking team for their older children. Does a child enjoy putting on plays or recitals? Do parents want their children to have more physical activity?  Parents can think outside the box and create their own unique events that typical homeschool groups do not normally offer. Parents can be creative and use this to their advantage to tailor their social activities to the needs of their families.

Personal Morals and Beliefs

Personal morals and beliefs matter greatly to many homeschooling families, and it can be very difficult for them to find social activities that don’t conflict with what they are trying to teach their children. Homeschooling.social allows families to be in charge of what activities they and their children want to attend. It also allows them to create their own events when they can’t find any that fit their family’s particular needs. Establishing connections with other like-minded families can help them and their children make lifelong friendships.
