Free Secular Homeschool Resources
If you’re looking for free, secular (non-religious) homeschool resources, I’ve got a list for you! I also make short videos about the free resources I find over on TikTok and they live over on my YouTube Channel as well!
I will update this list a few times a year and will always let you know when it was most recently updated. You can find “temporary” freebies and their expiration date at the top of the list, and make sure you are on my email list for temporary freebie updates!
I also recommend joining local curriculum swap groups on Facebook and even Next Door! Regular swap and “buy nothing” groups are great for finding fun freebies too. If you don’t have one in your area, you can start one.
I also have free resources here on the site you can check out, and I have so many resources to add to this list I will be chipping away, but constantly updating this post!
Also, PLEASE comment on this blog post or email me any free, secular resources to add to this list info@homeschoolnaturally.com, anytime!
