37. Steve Lambert and Five in a Row

In today’s episode, we get to spend time with Steve Lambert from Kansas City, Missouri. Steve is a homeschool father of two, grandfather of 7, all of whom have graduated from homeschooling. Steve is the publisher of the famous Five in a Row curriculum, and he's the husband of Jane Lambert who created Five in a Row. The Lambert's started homeschooling in 1981. After more than a decade of homeschooling, Jane started creating engaging lessons from the books she had vetted for her children, and began sharing her lessons with other homeschool mothers. In 1994, Five in a Row officially began as a curriculum, and for nearly 30 years it has been used by more than 600,000 children in all 50 states, every Canadian province, and more than 60 countries. Five in a Row is based on great books that are read five days in a row with a specific emphasis each day. The books used in Five in a Row must meet 3 essential criterion: beautiful illustration, rich diversity of content, and they must be soul-stirring and leave a lifelong impression. Throughout our interview, Steve shares countless wise insights and engaging experiences that illustrate the fundamental principles and keys of homeschooling. Perhaps the most profound realization from this episode is that the best education takes place when snuggling with our children while reading a great book on a comfy sofa.
