Universally, homeschooling moms face a daunting task as they fit school into already busy days. In this book, Managers of Their Homes, which comes with a unique hands-on Scheduling Kit, Teri Maxwell shares practical, proven time-management methods. As a homeschooling mom since 1985 with eight children, the Lord has taught Teri these simple, but workable solutions to the difficulty homeschooling moms have of “getting it ALL done.” It doesn't matter whether you have one child or twelve, this book will help you to plan your daily schedule.

How does one schedule school time? What about schooling with babies and toddlers? Are you struggling with keeping up in areas such as laundry, dishes, or housekeeping? Does it seem like there is no time for you in the day? Are you missing special time with your children? Do you feel stressed over the busyness of your days or not accomplishing all you want? Are your children doing what you want them to do each day?

Gain new hope from MOTH (Managers of Their Homes) from moms who have applied these methods. They have moved from chaos, stress, and disorganization to peace, contentment, and productivity. You can as well!

The book was tested by 24 home-school families, who read a pre-release version of the book and implemented a schedule in their homes. The results were astounding - far surpassing even what we were expecting! Throughout the entire book (8.5 x 11 inches; 174 pages) these "test moms" comments are featured in sidebars. As you journey through the book, you'll enjoy being able to read the comments and experiences of these moms as they progressed through the book, making and implementing their schedules.
