Homeschooling

Okay - how can I stress how great homeschooling is? The kids are totally exploring the world from pure curiosity, and that curiosity is not being diminished by authority of any kind. There's no competition, nasty little people, tests, grades. Think of the world with total freedom to do what you want, when you want. x -> infinity!!! The possibilities are endless. Here's what we're doing in our co-op:

Cooperative games
Nature Studies
Weather
Field Trips to Audubon Society and 19c. farmhouse (Philip Foster Farm)
Theater
Making Birdfeeders
Making Calendars
Holiday Celebrations
Book Making
Storytelling
Sewing
Chemistry
Volcanos
Water Reclaimation System
Gardening
Bird's Nests

What kindergartener wouldn't love these activities? We are having a blast! Lily loves to read, explore, create. I'm so happy we made this choice.
