Homeschooling and Socialization
● This might surprise you, but homeschooling 
and socialization go hand in hand. In fact, many 
homeschooled children have better social lives 
than their traditionally schooled peers.
● According to Think Impact Homeschooling 
Statistics, recent federal data shows that 3% to 
4% of the school-going population in the 
United States is homeschooled. 
● There are 73 million children in the U.S., which 
means over 2.9 million children are 
homeschooled in the U.S.

Socialization opportunities for homeschooled 
children:
● As stated above, if over 2.9 million children in the United States are homeschooled, how could they 
all be isolated and live unsocialized lives? Have you ever had a conversation with a homeschooled 
child? They are usually the ones the explain in detail the project that they are working on. 
● They are the ones that have unique interests and see the world through a much different lens than 
those around them.

Homeschooling Groups:
● Since there are so many homeschooling 
families, many families get together to plan 
fun activities and sports-related opportunities 
for their children. 
● Most cities have such a large amount of 
homeschooling families that they have 
registered homeschooling groups. 
● These groups offer support for 
homeschooling families, co-op learning, field 
trips, sports, and lessons.

Sports:
● Our local homeschooling group comes with 
some fantastic perks, like gymnastics 
lessons, at a local gymnastics club, 
swimming lessons at the pool, track and field 
during the warm months, and gym/indoor 
pool rentals during the cold months, 
sledding, skiing, horseback riding and more.

Community Service:
● Many homeschooling families understand the 
importance of the community. That’s why so 
many homeschooling families will volunteer 
at community events. Or care homes. 
● Some homeschooling groups organize 
carolling and visits with local care homes 
during the holiday season. 
● Other homeschooling families like to get 
involved in community gardens or soup 
kitchens.

Park Dates:
● During the summer months, when 
homeschooling activities are mostly paused, 
many homeschooling groups offer weekly 
meet-ups at parks in your location so 
homeschooling friends can get together to 
play and have fun!

Good Old Fashion Play:
● Just because your child is homeschooled 
doesn’t mean they can’t or shouldn’t partake 
in friendships in their neighbourhood. 
● Most homeschooled children have 
‘homeschooled’ friends and ‘neighbourhood 
friends.’ Just like a traditionally schooled 
child will have ‘school friends’ and 
‘neighbourhood friends.’

Basking in the Arts:
● Since homeschooled children have more 
time during the day than traditional learning 
students, they have more time to get 
involved in the arts. 
● This means they have more time to attend 
music lessons or art classes. Being able to 
develop those additional skills that will 
benefit them throughout their lives.
