Out of the Pressure Cooker
October 16, 2007
To all our old friends and families considering homeschooling in Orange County, California, don't miss this great Homeschool Information Night that Exploring Homeschooling is having October 27th:
"Out of the Pressure Cooker and Into a Joyful Simmer"
Mom of Eight Shares on How to Have a Low Stress Homeschool Where Everyone Is Excited About Learning
Presented by: Cristy Eirich
For too many, homeschooling becomes nagging children to drudge through textbooks, fill in the blanks in their workbooks, and the pressure to keep up with what the schools are doing. Then there is the housework that seems to all fall on Mom's shoulders, the question of how to get the children to obey and how to find time to take a shower, let alone have daily devotions. And that is when we only have a few children!
Don't stress - help is on the way! Cristy Eirich, mother to eight children whom she and her husband are raising up in the Lord Jesus, will share with you a Christ-centered way of homeschooling and home management that will bless you and give you a new outlook on learning, and what really matters in your homeschool.
Cristy will give her testimony on how she went from being a high pressure homeschooler to a joyful mother who discovered a creative way of teaching academic subjects that captivates children's interest. She will be sharing her top picks in curriculum, as well as tips on disciplining children, how to get organized and other hard-earned wisdom this mom of many has learned over the years. As a special treat, some of her children will share their insights as well.
If you are thinking of homeschooling, just starting or even in the midst of the journey, don't miss Cristy's wit and knowledge about biblical homeschooling. So step on out of the pressure cooker and simmer down to the Exploring Homeschooling meeting on October 27th.
Brett and Cristy Eirich have been married 20 years this November. They have been homeschooling for 12 years (really since the first ones were born). They have 8 children, and are hoping to adopt 2 from Africa soon. Their children range from 17 down to 2 1/2. They all reside in Tustin with a menagerie of dogs, cats, and various other critters.
