38. You Need More Poetry! with Christine Owens

April is Poetry Month! Never been a fan of poetry?

There are so many benefits to studying, creating and playing with poetry!

Christine Owens shares tons of benefits, tips and ideas for increasing love of learning with poetry!

Christine Owens has been homeschooling for fourteen years and is the author of Relaxed Homeschooling, the A Year of Poetry Tea Time series, Poetry in Winter, and the founder of the International Homeschooling Poetry Contest. She is on a mission to share with everyone the importance of poetry in a child’s education and how home education doesn’t have to look like public school. How a well-rounded education will expand critical thinking skills, elevates vocabulary and strengthens family bonds. She believes that there is a natural way to spark curiosity and foster a love of learning while exploring areas such as music, art, math, science, history and more.

At the end of this episode, you’ll be excited about poetry and ready to include more of it in your homeschool!
