The Carnival is a place for a homeschooled kid to show-off a blog entry - and to go see what other homeschooled kids are blogging about. Why should my Child blog?Blogging is a great way to encourage your children to write. It will help improve internet and computer skills - and is quite a social activity.Another great reason is that it encourages persistence. Going back to a blog over a period of time helps children see the long term results of sustained effort. Plus - it gives a great record of your child's accomplishments and achievements!

What is a Homeschool Carnival?A Blog Carnival is a place where lots of links to blog posts are collected together and put in one place - so that you can read lots of new and interesting blogs easily.The Homeschool Kids Carnival will be hosted by Homeschooling-ideas.com and each month will display links to homeschool blogs by kids. The idea is that kids will get to look at other homeschooled kids blogs - and have their blog read by more than just the relatives! How does my child join?Simply fill out the form below!Blog entries can be about whatever the child likes to blog about - it doesn't have to be about being homeschooled. Please Note - This service is for HOMESCHOOLED KIDS only! No adult blogs are allowed. I am not allowed to collect information from anyone under the age of 13 - so please use an adults email address when submitting to the carnival. Is this safe?If you allow your child to have a blog, then you can take precautions to protect them. As a minimum, set up your child's blog to have comments moderated - and have all comments emailed to you for approval. Also check your child's post to make sure they are not divulging personal details - getting your child to write under a false name is also advised.I will check all submissions and ensure (as best I can) that they are only from children. In this way we can work together to keep our children safe. How can I support the Carnival?Tell the children you know who blog about it.There are some Blog Buttons available here. Current and Previous CarnivalsThe next carnival will be held on March 30th, 2012.Carnival #26 - 31st January 2012. Older Editions of the Homeschool blogs Carnival have been archived
