Welcoming Productive Struggle: Helping Kids Learn Without Giving Up

01 Dec 2025

Description

EP241: Learning often looks messy before it looks magical. In this episode, Jean explores what productive struggle really is ~ why that uncomfortable moment when a new idea doesn’t fit is exactly where growth happens ~ and how to invite it into homeschooling without tipping kids into frustration. Drawing on Piaget’s ideas about equilibrium and disequilibrium, and the neuroscience of learning, we unpack how challenge literally upgrades the brain’s wiring and builds durable confidence.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review to help more homeschooling families find these ideas.Find the Show Notes here  https://artofhomeschooling.com/episode241/Send Jean a text message.
