About Me – Wrinkles and Rainbows (by Classic Housewife)
Hi, I’m Amber — a homeschool mom who believes learning should feel like childhood, not school.
When I first started homeschooling over 20 years ago, I thought it needed to look like a traditional classroom. But I quickly realized the beauty of homeschooling is its flexibility — the ability to tailor learning to fit each child’s unique personality, learning style, and interests. That freedom is what I love most about homeschooling, and it’s what I want to help you embrace, too.
Now that I’m starting all over at preschool again, I have a whole new appreciation for that freedom, and I can pull on 20 years of experience from the beginning – what a blessing!
Gentle Preschool Homeschooling
In our home, we keep things simple and joyful. We lean heavily on play, outdoor adventures, hands-on projects, and a gentle introduction to academics. I don’t believe preschoolers need desks and worksheets — they need space to explore, create, and grow. I do believe in a gentle approach to homeschooling especially in the preschool years.
I know many moms feel unqualified, overwhelmed, or unsure about homeschooling — and if that’s you, you’re in the right place. I want to encourage you, simplify the process, and help you see that you’re absolutely capable of giving your child an amazing education at home. You don’t need a rigid schedule, a perfect curriculum, or a teaching degree — you just need a heart willing to show up, explore, and learn alongside your child.
Welcome, friend. I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s make learning feel like childhood again.
