The story behind BasicBlox

The story behind BasicBlox

We believe homeschooling works best when families and educators co-create.

We believe education belongs back in the hands of families.

Homeschooling isn’t one-size-fits-all. As parents ourselves, we’ve tried countless curriculums and online schools, only to find most were either too rigid, too digital, or just disconnected from real family life. What we wanted was something built with families in mind—something flexible, hands-on, and grounded in real-world skills.


That’s why we created BasicBlox. It’s more than a platform—it’s a marketplace where parents and educators come together to co-create better homeschooling resources. Every lesson, every tool, every idea is tested in real homes and refined through collaboration. Instead of top-down curriculums made by companies that don’t understand our daily challenges, we’re building a space shaped by the people who actually live it.


Here, families can discover and share what works, while educators bring their expertise to design meaningful learning experiences. Together, we’re creating a living ecosystem where homeschooling feels less isolated and more connected. With BasicBlox, you’re not just teaching at home—you’re part of a community reimagining education for the next generation.

Homeschooling today is either rigid and standardized like public schools, or overly digital and detached from real family life. As parents ourselves, we’ve tried countless options — and saw the same problems over and over: bias baked into curriculums, one-size-fits-all lessons, and kids stuck behind screens.


BasicBlox was born out of a simple conviction: parents should lead their child’s education — not institutions, not strangers, and not algorithms.


We’re building more than a platform. It’s a marketplace where families and educators co-create real, hands-on learning, rooted in values, skills, and home life — not bureaucracy. Every curriculum is practical, flexible, and built for parents to teach confidently, even if they’ve never homeschooled before.


Instead of top-down education built by corporations and ideologies, we’re building a bottom-up movement shaped by families who actually live it.

We’re homeschool parents creating a community-driven marketplace.

A Community-Driven Marketplace for Real Education

After trying countless curriculums and online schools, we realized the best solutions don’t come from big companies—they come from families and educators working together. BasicBlox is our way of building that community.
