Now with the benefit of hindsight, I see that those physics lessons on the sledding hill, the shopping lessons in the grocery store, and the nature lessons in the backyard were exactly what made for a great education.

It's a wonderful gift you are giving your kids, but it certainly isn't easy especially when your needs are seldom met.<br />Battle on Ange...either way I wish you the best of luck!<br />Hugs from Montanafjord girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17423206071581704427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6577847153509326664.post-54079195001924340172012-02-08T09:56:12.373+01:002012-02-08T09:56:12.373+01:00Hope you've well and truly stifled that little...Hope you've well and truly stifled that little voice with the towel! I for one, just can't have you giving up the blog - but you mustn't let it feel like 'another job' either! <br />A sled lesson sounds like a lot of fun. There must be ways of combining numeracy at least into this for those mess monsters of yours.

I gave him the choice of home schooling pointing out many benefits: surfing for PE, classes on things that interested him... he struggled and chose the social life he was use to. oh well.

I could never have attempted home schooling when ours were of school age. There's always time to play in the snow when the school bell rings !! Much love.
