Delightful Survival

Delightful Survival: A Crash-Course in Schooling from Home and Educating from the Inside-Out

Brandi Graves (author) 

The world has changed in recent years and it’s the role of parents to scout a path forward. In light of this, more parents than ever are finding themselves contemplating the idea of homeschooling. But reframing expectations can be daunting, and establishing a balance between home and school is for many, a path uncharted. Delightful Survival provides a map. A map for the home educator: The pioneer of a new age.

Part memoir, part start-up guide, Delightful Survival is a book about finding the joy in parenting through education, and the personal growth that happens along the way. Written by a homeschooling mom of nearly two decades, it’s an anthem of encouragement to parents of all ages and backgrounds, and a streamlined overview of educational options outside the mainstream. By breaking down the process of developing a homeschooling mindset, establishing a framework for success, and tailoring an education to meet your child’s unique needs, it answers the questions dominating consideration - those involving socialization, special needs, educational standards, daily schedules, and curriculum… from one mom to another.

The world continues to shift - it always has. Unmovable, though, is a parent’s desire to provide the best for their children. Delightful Survival is a practical reminder that as a parent, you’ve actually been homeschooling longer than you think. With the right lens, you can go forward in confidence; the architect of possibility.
