Hey there! There's a lot going on behind the scenes here at Gather 'Round and we've got some exciting news in the works. We've got a new app!We've been working on a new app. Right now it's called "Gather 'Round Community" as I can't have two apps with the same name. Once we get the word out, we'll be removing our old app by April 30th and changing the name of this new one to be the same so that it is easy to find. The good news . . . you still get free access to all the same great resources you did before: videos, free pdf downloads, certificates of completion, book lists, and much more! We will be creating a new exclusive membership called "The Village" where we'll have weekly challenges to motivate and inspire us in our homeschooling. We'll also be starting a live weekly virtual co-op that you can join through the app that includes extra-curriculum tracks so that the whole family can be a part of owning their education and do a unit with others (with monthly virtual field trips). If you need some extra motivation in your homeschool, check it out (links to download the app are at the bottom).
*Please note, you will have to create a new account and we will not be transferring members from the old to the new as we are finding that many members are inactive. If you want to retain access, you will need to download the new app and register there. We've Updated Our Website!We've redesigned our website to be easier to navigate and get where you're trying to go and we’d love to hear what you think. Not only is our homepage updated, but our shop page is now organized alphabetically (all minis and mains) and we’re working on continuing to simplify our descriptions and navigation (check out our sample page). If you can't find something you're looking for or have questions or feedback, simply hit reply! The Gather 'Round ShowThis week, we'll be making a BIG announcement during our livestream Tuesday at 2 PM EST! Make sure you tune in on Facebook, Youtube, or our app. Add it to your calendar or click here to reserve your spot for the live event. For those of you who find video formats challenging, we're working on converting these sessions into podcast episodes you can listen to anywhere! These will be a part of our Gather 'Round with Rebecca Spooner podcast available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. The 2025 Establish ConferenceDid you hear? We are putting together an online conference with worship, a preview of our new math program, and encouraging sessions for the whole family. Registration will be opening soon so keep an eye on your emails for more info! Looking forward, |

Hey there! I hope you had an amazing Easter weekend celebrating the Resurrection with your family! We enjoyed some much-needed rest at our house and my parents got creative with a reel they watched and "became" the Easter egg hunt! I mean, if you want to mix it up for teens, try clipping the eggs on a shirt and chasing grandpa down . . . while being squirted with water guns. #wet Coming up . . .
