Just thought I'd pop in here and post a little update; it's been a while.
Yes, we're still homeschooling , though most days we're focused mostly on "living and learning" as we go. I'm finding that works pretty well for us; though I do insist on some Math and Reading (almost) daily. I still can't jump into total unschooling; though I wish I had the courage to give it a try! My girls really do learn so much just by their natural curiosity and desire to know things.
Their current interest is sign language, which has been fun. They're still just getting started, but I'm amazed at how quickly they're learning the different signs- much, much faster than I can !
Sarah is learning cooking skills and usually prepares breakfast and lunch during the week. She loves doing that; and if she'd just find the same zeal for laundry I'd be blissfully happy (not likely I'm afraid)!
OK, time for me to have a cup of tea and relax a bit........ |
