Get Out of the Box to Get Into Their Minds (Ideas for Special Moms with Special Kids) With Janie Walton

September 21, 2006

Ready for some fresh methods guaranteed to help your children learn? In deep need of something just a bit different from the traditional teaching methods? Get ready! This is the workshop JUST for you! Janie Walton is probably the most creative homeschool moms that I know–can you believe that? She is a-m-a-z-i-n-g! She has learned so much through the years homeschooling her children. Now, she graciously agreed to come and share with our Mom-to-Mom group this past Tuesday night! It was an amazing workshop! EVERY homeschool mom should hear this one!

Janie shared two different workshops–blending into one great night! During the first half of the night, she shared words of encouragement to homeschool moms with special needs children (even those whose need might be spiritual…or just a hug!) along with a devotional. The second half of the night, she gave some practical ideas for helping our special children grow spiritually, emotionally, socially, and academically. Regardless of the ages that you teach…needs that they face today…or your approach to homeschooling, you will find MUCH to take home after sitting at Janie’s feet for the evening (or during your morning walk!)!
