- Hey friends,
So many have asked to see just how I do our morning basket, from how I do my 24 family ways, to how I do our read aloud. So I thought this would be perfect. Do my morning basket with me in real time. This is how we do it, there is no wrong way.
This video is a collab with two other awesome ladies.

After the kids were arguing and you finished handling it and then you said "okay"... That simple "okay" made me laugh out loud. That was the universal mom version of "okay". 😂
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your real-ness! I love that you left in some correction of your kids and talked about disruptiveness and not doing the experiments because of some attitude issues!! This happens in our home and it’s so incredibly nice to not feel alone!
MamasaurusRex5 ❤️❤️❤️
We used 24 family ways. I work so hard on teaching them values and truth to live by. It is probably the number one goal that I have - and I get SO discouraged. This video just knocked my socks off for reasons I wouldn't have realized. I totally need tips on my morning basket routine, but GIRL. Do you ever feel like you're just spinning your wheels talking about peacemaking? I thought I was alone when I had to discipline my kids for something I had taught them for the 30th time just 20 minutes before. I'm not alone! It reminds me that we do this for the long game. We plant seeds and plant and plant and nurture and discipline while we trust God to give the growth. I feel so encouraged now. This IS the life. This IS the training up. Thank you for not just deleting and trying again the next day. I am so grateful!
Thank you for showing real life! I feel like it is something that is lacking on social media and TH-cam these days, especially in the area of homeschooling. Goodness it sure does make this mama feel a little better that I’m not the only one dealing with bad attitudes, disruption, lack of cooperation, sibling squabbles, etc. And I love seeing other moms handle it and talk about it, too. 🙌🏻
Momma, you did a good honest job.... and I know Jesus knows your heart.. your ups, downs, strongholds, weaknesses, and just like the air, He is there with you. THANK YOU for this breathe of fresh air video of what your morning is like as a homeschooling family. I myself have literally learned from this visual demonstration. You showed me you don't have to be perfect, just willing..... honest..... present..... forgiving yet firm... and ALL of that is just awesome. Again, thank you for taking the time to share with us all. I know its not easy and I just want to say if you didn't get 100% of your to do list done, you have helped a fellow homeschooling mama. GOD BLESS
Loved how you portrayed this time...showing it including interruptions, reminders, questions, and just relatable morning basket time! This was so good, Ashlee! A reminder why I love your channel. ❤️ Thanks for sharing this! We are working through Our 24 Family Ways too. I love how it’s structured!
Mama to Five Thankyou friend!
Thank you so much for sharing your morning basket time! I love how you don’t sugarcoat or gloss over things during your homeschool day-kids can be very disruptive at times and just have bad days in general! It’s so encouraging to know that no one is alone in dealing with these types of behaviors! 😊
THANK YOU for showing real life! I was beginning to wonder if my kids were the only ones constantly fighting or disrupting. It can be so disheartening - but like you said, this is hard and not for the faint of heart so I'm powering through! More of this please! 🙌🙌
This is probably THE best homeschool video I’ve seen. We started homeschooling this year and I have honestly stressed myself daily over my sons attitude and every video I watch the kids are respectful and “love school” and the mom always has everything together and does everything perfect. It made me feel so much better to know I’m not the only one getting on to my kid or begging him to pay attention. I so appreciated that!
Amber McKnight ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the honest look into your morning. I can’t even tell you how much it helps to know that the struggles aren’t mine alone. ❤️
Love this so much. I think looking from the outside it can seem like other moms "have it all together" or their kids behave all the time so it's refreshing to see people you look up to having the same struggles ♥️♥️ Homeschooling is so rewarding but sometimes you just have those days where you start questioning whether your cut out for this work 😂
Like so many other I appreciate your realness! I know that it definitely helps us all feel a little more normal and not alone when we can physically see others have our same struggles❤️
Thank you so much for being transparent with us! This is my second year homeschooling (ages 7,10,13). It can be a challenge to keep everyone attentive and with good attitudes- including me! We press on but I often feel like, this is NOT what I see on TH-cam- what am I doing wrong! I love seeing your morning time with older kids! It has really given me some good ideas for older-kid activities!
Thank you so much for sharing! This video encouraged me so much as I know it's difficult when children aren't cooperating or getting along. Your realness is so refreshing and encouraging. Sometimes school days don't go as planned and it helps to see that others experience it too and chose to press on. Thanks again ♥️
I loved this video, and I love that y’all were on the couch and yet you still maintain order. So much fun collabing with you ladies ❤️
You are so right that homeschooling isn’t easy! We often have a hard time with cooperative learning!!! I’m glad you put in the real life, “that was rough” part! Lol! I feel normal now! 🤣❤️
I love how real this is. Thank you so much for sharing. Some days can be so difficult.
I learn a lot from these videos. I'm a student myself. :-) I don't know why my daughter yawns so much when I teach her ..lol Well she says I have a soft sweet voice, I wish I was this live. At least she retains the information and learns a lot and loves it.
The honesty of the dysfunctional moments is one of the more valuable parts in this video, for new HS moms like me. A lot of times we don’t get to see that and when we get pushback from our children in our own homes, we compare ourselves to what we see on TH-cam or social media and think there is something wrong with us. So thank you for that 😊
I love how very different our morning basket time look. I loved seeing yours! Thanks for joining us. 😘
The Waldock Way thanks for including me!
Thank you for allowing us to be apart of what I feel is one of the most special parts of your homeschool day. ❤
Ps. Love the glasses!!!! You are gorgeous mama!!!
Thank you for another real look into your life as a homeschool family. I copied your morning time after the new year and it has changed our school day in a big way. Thank you for great content
Thank you for sharing! I’m trying to incorporate a morning basket for myself to maybe ease anxiety I suffer with. Also one for my son to give him inspiration to not do electronics first thing on weekends.
Also thank you for being honest with not having perfect homeschool day!
Thanks for always keeping it real! So thankful we are not the only ones who struggle. I fell like I have to set the limits with my kids every school day even though I am super consistent.
This was such a good one! So encouraging to see imperfections and frustrations. You are a great mama!
My kids are still young so it's different I'm sure....when our days end up disruptive I do one of two things: add sunshine or add water. We go outside if we can. Sometimes we Starbucks school (which can be an adventure with literary learning 😂). If it's warm I'll let them run in the sprinkler for half an hour and then make them listen while they dry in the sun. ♥️ You're an awesome mama. Thanks for sharing with us!
You are doing an amazing job. Thanks for sharing this. I'm just learning about morning baskets and it looks really helpful in organizing the homeschool day. And thanks for keeping it real!
“Thank you! Okay.” 🤣👌🏼 Oh my goodness, I appreciate that you left that in there to show the homeschool mom struggle. ❤️
I had taken a few months off from watching TH-cam as I found myself spending far too much time on it, but I’ve spent any free time the last few days binging on your channel trying to catch up, lol. So many things I needed to hear!! I love your transparency in your videos, it really helps knowing we are not the only ones that have days struggling with attitudes...especially as this time of year seems to get rough! 😬
Thank you for taking our requests and showing Our 24 Family Ways because I've been so interested in that. Also, like everyone else here, I'm so thankful you show that homeschooling is hard and there are struggles. It really does help us to see that and be able to relate.
I just found you last night and I'm so glad I did! I've been homeschooling my daughters since January and am loving learning about other family's routines. Your videos are so fun and helpful!
Thank you so much for taking the time to film this! It is so helpful seeing how you actually use the morning basket. Great ideas!
Ahhhh I love this, thanks for sharing this time with your family. I got the book because of you! (okay I get lots of books because of you! lol!)
Your videos inspire me soo much I am so excited to start homeschooling my kids ! I watch your videos and take notes all the time , thank you for your passion .
When I saw all three of you guys uploaded these I was so excited! I love watching all three of you. You guys are my top three TH-camrs/ instagrams! ❤️
Thank you for showing us just exactly what is in a morning basket and how you implement it! I'm sure filming it all adds another level of stress that you don't need. Wish I could edit out my children's misbehavior out of our day😂We get it though. Homeschooling and being around each other all day every day is stressful!
I love this! Thanks for sharing! My kids enjoyed it too and said “wow mom we interrupt you way more! Her kids are good! We gotta be better like them and maybe we would get school done sooner!” Haha. 😂 y’all made us feel normal and encouraged! Thanks for being so real!!! ❤️
your videos are so helpful thanks for all you do
How do you handle your emotions through the waves of homeschooling? Do you find the time for your own hobbies or anything else? I know waking before the kids is beneficial but sometimes in certain seasons it’s more difficult for that approach. Just want to pick your brain. Thanks for sharing :)
I just found your channel and I really enjoy it. I have just started looking into the Good and Beautiful curriculum. Do you use it for all subjects? I have a big age difference in my oldest to second child. My children are ages 11,6,4,&11 months. At what age did you find it easy to combine some subjects together? I struggle with morning time because I feel like if I read to the younger ones my oldest isn't interested.
These types of videos are my favorite!! They are so helpful to watch. Thank you!!
Olivia's little voice is so cute I can barely stand it. 😍
Thank you for this, it was so insightful. We are only 14 months into Home Education. We are still finding our groove. We try not to recreate school at home. I don't think all of my kids would sit for as long as 40 minutes for science. My eldest would, my second might and my twin boys who are 6 definitely wouldn't. How would you approach the age/stage difference?
Thank you SO much for sharing this!! I love it the real time. Can you please share your glasses? I know you're busy... I've even stalked your other videos & IG and can't find a link ;)
Valerie Shannon Costco !
Love this! This is very similar to how we do our school time!
I really appreciate your honesty.
Thank you for your honesty in this video, it helped me immensely 🤗
Yikes....this video was my WEEK last week 😩(only worse cause younger kids). So happy to have put it behind us. Keep going, mama. I’m really debating doing tgtb science next year 😏 .. wondering if it would still be too early for my 7 year olds! My son knows a ton about animals and is itching to do the marine biology after we looked through it online so I was going to choose that one and Arthropods to spread the out over the year.....
Anyone have any other suggestions I can check out?? We do nature study as science this year and will continue to do so...
This is so helpful! Thank you! How do you decide which read-aloud to do with your morning time?
Such a good video ❤
Thank you for being honest about your day.
We all have days like this with our kiddos for sure! I think your glasses look cute! :-)
Thanks so much for sharing. We are trying to get a morning basket routine going, so these types of videos are most helpful for me. 😁
Btw: I love your glasses! I have the same ones! 🤓
Silly question but how do you make your coffee? Lol it looks soooo creamy and good. Thank you for your videos.
Thank you for sharing! Your transparency and realness helped me a ton! I love the morning basket concept and I will be adding it to our homeschool! Do you know if once your oldest moves on to highschool level curriculum if you will still be able to continue the science/history as a group?
Hi there,
Do you have a teaching background? I feel like all the videos I’ve seen of homeschool moms , you guys are able to teach so well. Do you think it’s a prerequisite to have been a teacher or wanted to be a teacher?
Love The Be book. Perfect for black history month!
This was awesome
Thanks so much for sharing!! I love when you are real! But the real question is: where are your shirt and sweater from? 😂 so cute!
Ashely can you please tell me the brand of your glasses, I love them!
I thought I was the only one. I'm needing to get my first ever "real" sunglasses and I think I just figured out what style I like...
Costco!
@@GraceandGrit Thank you... & TY so much for this vid!! Truly appreciate all that you take the time to share.. Such a blessing!!
PS: Love your sweater & t shirt too.. ^_^
Also, I've had to slack down on reading so much to my kids bc I can't keep my voice! Honestly, I didn't read even as much as I feel u do..not at all. We're always crushing for time 🙄 but I do talk a LOT to my kids throughout the day & my voice... It just gets so raspy! Does yours? Anything u take that helps? I use cough drops a LOT. I still lose my voice.
Hannah Lowery I can get so exhausted reading!! It takes so much energy for some reason. So many interruptions and constant talking. I can relate not being able to read as much as you want. Also we’ve been finding the audiobooks through our library when we can. And we just snuggle up with blankets and snacks and listen. It’s helped!
@@jennadee123 thanks!!! We ♥️ audios too! It's not really school-related but have you heard of adventures in Odyssey? My kids love it & so do my husband & I lol
Hannah, YES!!! We pay monthly for their app subscription! Worth every penny! I grew up listening to it, and it’s so neat my kids love it just as much!
@@jennadee123 lol we have the monthly subscription too! & I grew up listening to it on Saturdays. We don't have a TV. We just gather around & listen to adventures in Odyssey on the blue tooth speaker 😜. When I mention adventures in Odyssey, most ppl look at me like I'm nuts. Lol so cool to know someone else 💗s it like us!
Loving this schedule!
I always love your clothes! Any way you could link or share where you purchased some of your clothing? I especially love your T-shirt today!
thank you for showing our 24 family ways! I just bought it used! So its meant to be done in 24 weeks? That weather book looks great!
Loving this! Thank you! ❤
Just started video & I thought of something.. the math that u got from the good & the beautiful, how's it working without the manipulatives? I thought about getting part 2 just to reinforce & practice some basics that they've learned already.
I've commented before about your REALNESS and your content, so I'm sorry to be redundant. But I just really appreciate your videos. I'm currently unsubscribing from other channels and really focusing down to only channels that are truly beneficial, encouraging, and have valuable content. I will definitely stay a subscriber to your channel!!
Also, Love your cardigan! That is definitely your color
Thankyou!
Seeing a little more detail on the Weather Unit I think that will be our next one. I have yet to be disappointed in their Science.
Love this! Thank you! Question: Do you have curriculum for all 4 kids in all 4 grades? If so, how do you choose which one to do with everyone in the morning basket so that it is on level with everyone? I have a 6 YO and an 8 YO BTW, so not too much difference, but still my 6 YO Isn't reading or writing yet...
I love your videos like this ❤
Love your eyeglasses!
How do you pick the read alouds?
Juli Davis randomly!
What are your consequences? On days my kids are disruptive, I get drained easy and I feel like I’m not taken seriously and feel like I miss out on important constructive time.
Practical exercises, please.
