About

Debra Reed
Mom of 10
Homeschooling since 2000
Founder of NotebookingPages.com
Over 20 years ago, I was an overwhelmed homeschool mom trying to make things work for all my kids. Then I discovered notebooking โ and everything changed. It simplified our days, sparked real learning, and brought joy back into our homeschool.
I started NotebookingPages.com to help other homeschool moms do the same โ with thousands of printable notebooking pages, an all-in-one lifetime membership, and easy-to-use notebooking apps made just for homeschool families.
What is Notebooking?
A flexible, meaningful way to learn โ
without worksheets, busywork, or boxed-in assignments.

Notebooking is a simple but powerful way for kids to process, share, and record what theyโre learning โ from any source.
Instead of the typical fill-in-the-blank, short answer, or multiple-choice activities that feed the โstudy and forgetโ cycle, your children create a personal โshow, tell, and rememberโ notebook โ filled with their own words, ideas, sketches, diagrams, copywork, and more.
Notebooking follows a simple rhythm:
- ๐ Read or explore โ a book, documentary, field trip, etc.
- ๐ฌ Reflect โ through oral narration and discussion
- โ๏ธ Record โ what theyโve learned in their own way
This โread-to-learn, write-to-learnโ process builds real understanding, deeper thinking, and strong communication skills โ all while supporting your current curriculum or replacing it entirely. (In our home, we prioritize use of living books whenever possible.)
Notebooking naturally integrates writing into your homeschool. Thereโs no need to set aside a separate time (or even curriculum) for writing โ it becomes part of how your children learn. They practice writing with purpose, not just for practice.
Notebooking also works with all ages of students, across all subjects, and with all the homeschool methods โ Charlotte Mason, Classical, Unit Study, Unschooling, Eclectic, and even Traditional.
And โ it saves YOU time.
Notebooking lets you teach multiple kids at once using rich, family-style learning. No more juggling separate curriculum for every child โ everyone can learn subjects like history, Bible, and science together, while still working at their own level.
Over time, their notebooks become a treasured keepsake โ a shelf full of notebooks that show what theyโve learned, how theyโve grown, and the voice theyโve developed along the way.
Why Use Our Notebooking Pages?
More inviting than a blank notebook. Less intimidating, too.

Our library of notebooking pages provides a wide variety of styles, layouts, and designs that make even reluctant writers feel comfortable putting words on paper.
Notebooking pages don't feel โ
- ๐ซ too open-ended (like a blank notebook)
- ๐ซ too boxed-in (like a worksheet)
They strike the perfect balance โ enough structure to feel approachable, with plenty of freedom to make the work their own.
Each page may include:
- ๐ Lined areas for writing
- ๐จ Framed spaces for sketches or images
- ๐ผ๏ธ Borders for visual appeal
- ๐๏ธ Topical illustrations for hundreds of subjects
These elements give kids a clear, welcoming space to work. They can instantly see where their words will go and how much space they have. Maybe they choose a page with a half-page box for a paragraph, one with three framed sections for three key points, or a full page of lines because they donโt feel like drawing that day.

With hundreds of topics โ from history, nature study, Bible, composers, and artists to famous people, science, and more โ plus plenty of all-purpose layouts, thereโs always a page that works with what youโre studying and how your kids want to present it.
With so many layouts, line styles, and borders available, notebooking feels doable, natural, and far more enjoyable. Your kids will create notebooks theyโll be proud to share... and keep forever.
Fewer tears. Fewer battles. Homeschool days you all feel good about.

How to Start Notebooking in Your Homeschool
Starting notebooking in your homeschool doesn’t have to be complicated. Learn how to make time for it, choose the right topics, and keep writing stress-free.

How Much Notebooking Should We Do in Our Homeschool?
If youโve ever wondered, โHow much notebooking should we actually do each day?โ โ youโre not alone! This was one of my big questions when we first started.

What Do We Write and How Much?
Does writing have this effect on any of your children? As soon as you tell them to open their notebook, it begins. Their eyes bounce around like the ball in a pinball machine. It’s impossible to focus on the paper before them. Their once comfortable chair betrays them. It’s impossible to find
