FPEA- Florida Homeschool Convention 2013- Orlando Rocks!
Each year we see more and more parents choosing to homeschool their children. This year we noticed a lot of young parents with younger children at the homeschool convention. 
Parents from around the state of Florida come to a wonderful refreshing environment where they can get re-assured they are doing the right thing by taking charge of their children's education.
There is more than enough to choose from as far as curriculum goes. There are over 1200 exhibitors in the exhibition hall. Sometimes for new homeschooling families, this can be a little bit overwhelming.
My tip for new homeschooling parents is to choose curriculum based on how your children learn whether they are hands on, very visual or perhaps they are more auditory learners. Don't over spend on your curriculum because you may find out after spending money that your child or children hate the curriculum. There is so much that is now for free on the internet.
Check out this amazing booth with puzzles. We stayed at this booth trying the different puzzles. One lady created ALL of these!!! She is so smart too! It was fun watching her be so passionate about the hundreds of puzzle formations and solutions to goals. It was so fun!
Many parents who choose to homeschool do so because they believe they are called to do so. If this is the case with you, pray about what is the best curriculum for your family. You will get the answers from your Heavenly Father.
Homeschool is now mainstream. We are very blessed to live in Florida. Florida is one of the most lenient states for homeschool reporting and evaluating.
