8 Interactive Websites to Engage Kids in Homeschooling

Homeschooling seems like the perfect option for parents who want their kids to explore their true interests and learn at their own pace. However, this type of education also imposes great risks. First of all, you cannot rely solely on boring textbooks, since you cannot take the role of a teacher who gives lectures. You need interactive online tools that will engage your kid into the learning process.
In the continuation, you’ll find 8 websites that will make this adventure easier both for you and your child.

1. A to Z Kids Stuff
This website offers tons of activities for homeschooled children, separated in three age groups: toddler, preschool, and school-age. It will take a while for you to explore the activities, articles, resources, art recipes, reviews of children’s music and movies, and more.

2. ChildrensPictureBooks.info
Are you wondering which books are appropriate for your child’s age and tastes? This website will help you discover the perfect picture books for homeschooled children. Some of the suggestions introduce children to math, science, religion, and other subjects.

3. Write My Essay
Are you ready to teach your kid how to write essays? That’s probably the hardest part of homeschooling. You can get help at this interactive website, which offers writing tips for students of all ages. You’ll find awesome educational articles in the blog section. The topics range from studying tips to essay writing to actual essays, and everything in between.

4. Enchanted Learning
There are plenty of educational resources at this website, and they are properly organized in categories that enable you to find whatever you’re looking for. The Monthly Activity Calendar guides you through the teaching process, so you won’t start wondering which concepts to cover each day.

5. Random Acts of Kindness
This is a wonderful community that shares educational tips, guidance, ideas, and complete resources. However, it’s better than most educational websites because it also inspires children to be kind.

6. Brain Food
You have to break up the lessons with fun activities that will inspire your kid to learn more. Brain Food provides great interactive games, as well as an awesome collection of puzzles. All games are child-friendly and they require thinking power.

7. American Institute for Learning and Human Development
There is a whole science behind the way your child learns. At this website, you’ll find resources associated to multiple intelligences, neurodiversity, miseducation in America, awakening the natural genius, and much more.

8. Idealist
When students are placed within the limits of conventional education, they forget how important and unique they are. This website inspires people to use their talents and make a change. You can find information on organizations and resources that will enable your kid to realize his/her potential.

Homeschooling can be an overwhelming challenge, especially when your kid gets distracted by the TV and web. However, if you are a committed homeschooling parent, your child will grow into a talented, versed person ready to face great challenges!

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
