Unschooling in December doesn’t mean “taking a break from learning.”
In this episode, Sue Patterson shares what typical unschooling days really look like during the holidays—slow mornings, cozy rhythms, spontaneous learning, busy outings, and the kinds of meaningful life experiences that traditional schooling often pushes aside.

If you’ve wondered how unschooling families handle December, or if you’re transitioning away from school and worried about “falling behind,” this conversation will help you see how much learning naturally shows up through holiday activities, connection, play, creativity, and real life.

You’ll learn:

  • What unschooling days actually look like in December
  • How to see academic learning through holiday traditions
  • Why kids learn more when the pressure is lifted
  • How to stop the “catching up later” worry
  • Why connection and rest matter more than checklists
  • How busy families can still unschool joyfully
  • Ways to notice the learning that’s already happening

This episode is perfect for new unschoolers, almost-unschoolers, or any parent who dreams of a calmer, more connected December.
