Welcome to the Munya School

• December 16, 2008 - Who needs toys when you have a toothbrush

Imagination is a wonderful gift, preferably not to be extinguished. But somehow Essy got an extra dose of it.

A few years ago, when she was two, this became evident when she took a quarter, a nickel, and two dimes while we were at the Chiropractor and pretended they were a family.

Well today, she's in the bathroom with every toothbrush she could find (at least a dozen), pretending they are people.

Never mind that she has a room full of toys. Apparently toothbrushes are all she needs. :) Gotta love the creativity.

Isn't it funny how they can play with the simplest things, making them into families and so forth, when they have a room full of toys? Plastic cups, silverware at the table, whatever. Mine are the same way! Thanks for commenting on my blog, btw! I like your template, too--wink!

About Me

Munya-land is a creation of my oldest daughter's imagination. It has its own language, its own sayings, and even its own Queen. When we returned to privately homeschooling after using a homeschool-friendly charter school, my daughter requested that our school be named for Munya-land. And so, it is. Our philosophy is centered around family, responsibility, and building the love of learning and exploration. It is a journey - one where we are constanting learning and growing - together.
