Description
Hello and welcome back to the campfire! Today we have Cait Curley joining us. Cait is a lifelong gamer, educator, podcaster, and homeschool mom to 3. She is the founder of Never Board Learning, blogger at My Little Poppies, and one half of The Homeschool Sisters Podcast.  Cait left her career as a School Psychologist when she became an unexpected homeschooler. After seeing the benefits of play-based learning as a school psychologist, Cait decided to incorporate into her homeschool days at the beginning and has not looked back. Cait believes a play mindset can transform your homeschool routine and family life. Their days are filled with delicious books, incredible games, and a patchwork of creative resources. So grab a seat by the fire as we travel to Southern New Hampshire and discuss how homeschooling can be ‘almost’ all fun and games!
