Homeschooling and Socialization
  • This might surprise you, but homeschooling and
    socialization go hand in hand. In fact, many
    homeschooled children have better social lives
    than their traditionally schooled peers.
  • According to Think Impact Homeschooling
    Statistics, recent federal data shows that 3 to
    4 of the school-going population in the United
    States is homeschooled.
  • There are 73 million children in the U.S., which
    means over 2.9 million children are homeschooled
    in the U.S.

Socialization opportunities for homeschooled
children
  • As stated above, if over 2.9 million children in
    the United States are homeschooled, how could
    they all be isolated and live unsocialized lives?
    Have you ever had a conversation with a
    homeschooled child? They are usually the ones the
    explain in detail the project that they are
    working on.
  • They are the ones that have unique interests and
    see the world through a much different lens than
    those around them.

Homeschooling Groups
  • Since there are so many homeschooling families,
    many families get together to plan fun activities
    and sports-related opportunities for their
    children.
  • Most cities have such a large amount of
    homeschooling families that they have registered
    homeschooling groups.
  • These groups offer support for homeschooling
    families, co-op learning, field trips, sports,
    and lessons.

Sports
  • Our local homeschooling group comes with some
    fantastic perks, like gymnastics lessons, at a
    local gymnastics club, swimming lessons at the
    pool, track and field during the warm months, and
    gym/indoor pool rentals during the cold months,
    sledding, skiing, horseback riding and more.

Community Service
  • Many homeschooling families understand the
    importance of the community. Thats why so many
    homeschooling families will volunteer at
    community events. Or care homes.
  • Some homeschooling groups organize carolling and
    visits with local care homes during the holiday
    season.
  • Other homeschooling families like to get involved
    in community gardens or soup kitchens.

Park Dates
  • During the summer months, when homeschooling
    activities are mostly paused, many homeschooling
    groups offer weekly meet-ups at parks in your
    location so homeschooling friends can get
    together to play and have fun!

Good Old Fashion Play
  • Just because your child is homeschooled doesnt
    mean they cant or shouldnt partake in
    friendships in their neighbourhood.
  • Most homeschooled children have homeschooled
    friends and neighbourhood friends. Just like a
    traditionally schooled child will have school
    friends and neighbourhood friends.

Basking in the Arts
  • Since homeschooled children have more time during
    the day than traditional learning students, they
    have more time to get involved in the arts.
  • This means they have more time to attend music
    lessons or art classes. Being able to develop
    those additional skills that will benefit them
    throughout their lives.
