Hey Guys! We've finally gotten semi-settled in our new little life as full-time RV'ers! As we have gotten back into a rhythm and routine, I began thinking about how we've adjusted our homeschool to fit into such a small space!
So today I'm sharing some tips that we've found to be helpful for navigating a tiny homeschool space. Let me know if you have some tips to share if you, too, function in a tiny homeschool space!

This was really interesting and helpful! We intend to live in our camper full time for the next several years (we've lived in ours 2.5 years already and still love it!), and we also intend to homeschool Lord willing so I've been looking for a video just like this about how to best maximize space for school books! Thank you!

Awesome! I love living tiny. It's amazing what you can live without.

We are looking to sell our huge home and go full time RVing. We have always had a dedicated HS space, so this has been a really helpful video!

As probably one of the few people who is going from a 2500 Sq ft house to a almost 500 Sq ft camper this was very helpful! Thank you! I'm new to homeschooling. This is our first year, so I'm still trying to get my footing and then to change it so drastically I'm kind of freaking out haha. But your video was very helpful! Thanks!

I'm glad you found it to be helpful! I hope your transition went well! It can be a shock to the system but we have loved it. You start to realize how very little you need in order to survive!

Awesome set up! Thank you for sharing! I would love that table if we ever get a camper, great to have the flexibility

Thank you!! It has been so helpful to be able to pull it out, use it, and then put it back when we’re done. Space is precious in 450 square feet!!! 😉🤣

Interesting! We recently replaced our coffee table with a storage ottoman and I love that most of our current school books can be stored hidden in there and they are easily accessible to our major homeschool spaces, the couch and the dining room table.

Yes! Me too! I love that everything can be stuffed inside and hidden when school isn't in session!

What books did you end up taking with you? Can you do a book tour?

@livingthegandeelife5565 Жыл бұрын

Each time we have set out from our homebase we have taken a box of picture books, a box of activity books (hidden pictures, word searches, etc), a handful of books for each kid to read on their own of their own choosing, 15-20 books of read aloud books that tie to the specific history and science we are studying. There has always been more space than I can fill and too many books that I never get through them all!

Love this! I have a 800sqft total home and we could totally downsize for a RV that’s 450sqft. I mean I may struggle with the books a bit lol

It’s been a lot of easier than I thought it’d be. And also a huge weight off my shoulders. The less you have, the less you have to maintain!

I see you have the desk where the washer would go. Do you not have a washer? Do you find the laundromat cost effective?

LOVE your ottoman storage idea!! Where did you get your ottoman?

Thank you!!! I actually found it on Amazon!

It looks like y'all have a really good homeschool setup. I actually relate to some of your tips because we live in a really small house without a dedicated homeschool room. I hope you're enjoying the beach 🌴

@livingthegandeelife5565 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you!! We are having a great time! Except it’s making it difficult to want to do school work when the beach is so close!! 😂

We went homeless..its been three years our stationary travel trailer still feels miserable, messy and hopeless.

@livingthegandeelife5565 Жыл бұрын

I'm so sorry to hear this. I can definitely see how being stationary in a camper could feel less exciting. We tend to be stationary for 3 months at a time and it can start to feel like the walls start to close in on you. Traveling and seeing parts of the country can certainly relieve that burden!

@livingthegandeelife5565 no car to pull and the TT is in horrible condition...and I I can't get organized so we are a biohazard ☹️
