What if December in your homeschool could feel peaceful, meaningful, and beautifully simple?
In this episode of the Music in Our Homeschool podcast, Gena Mayo shares exactly how to use her signature 15-Minute Music Method to build a calm, joy-filled Christmas School rhythm for your family. If December often feels chaotic—with performances, events, shopping, and disrupted routines—this episode will show you a better way.
Gena explains what Christmas School is, why it works so well for homeschool families, and how shifting your learning rhythm for a few weeks can actually deepen connection and spark more meaningful learning. She also walks you through her favorite resources for a rich, low-prep December:
- Music of Christmas (three full years of lessons)
- Christmas Musicals Mini Course
- Christmas Carols Made Easy
- Fine Art Pages: Christmas, Adoration of the Magi, and Nativity Through the Ages
You’ll learn how to structure a simple four-week plan, how to combine music and art to create a beautiful atmosphere, and why 15 minutes a day is enough to make December both manageable and memorable. Gena also shares personal stories from her early homeschooling years and a short Scripture reflection to encourage you as you approach Advent and Christmas.
Whether you want an easy Morning Time plan, need something meaningful for busy December days, or simply want to bring more beauty into your home, this episode will help you create a Christmas School you truly look forward to.
