How long do you break for the holidays?
With Thanksgiving right around the corner I'm curious if everyone else takes a break from homeschooling for the winter. I've found that if we take too long a break it's that much more difficult for the kids to get back into the routine. We took 2 months last year and it was way too much time off. It took a good month after starting before we were back into the routine and with much fussing along the way. I think we're going to just go with 1 month this year and get right back into it. I don't want a repeat of last year. How much time do you usually schedule off for winter break if any at all?
