    We've been unschooling since before they could talk! When education is this fun, why wait? Why even separate it?

Inside

Don’t worry about getting outside

You’ll get outside whenever; you’re unschoolers! Not sure what to learn about while just hanging around home?

Once again, everything is education

Math through socket wrenches. Science in the kitchen. Art colours & design all over. How are couches made? TV stands? How do lamps work? Surge protectors? What’s a computer doing? How is it playing on the TV?

And on, and on, and on…

A Week of Unschool : Episode 3
February 6, 2018

Another great week of learning! He learned how to more properly navigate a giant ice pile that used to be a snow pile. They even got to climb up and slide down it when it was a snow pile again.

We were on the DIY kick after our homemade playdoh, so we made up some homemade puffy paint. Just self-rising flour, salt, water, and food colour, but oh no, we didn’t have any self-rising flour. We had to find out if we could make some from our existing ingredients. You bet your baking powder we could!

Treading Water
February 5, 2018

Down to one kid in waterwings! Many hours have been spent in gramma’s pool between now and the time he was wearing swimming diapers. Swims with gramma, or grampa, or mom or dad, or his aunt, uncle, and cousins, or any combination thereof.

Just recently he mastered ‘goggles and nose holding’ for new underwater adventures and was excited to show me. (I got him to dip down sans-nose holding a few times, but it didn’t last long)

A Week of Unschool : Episode 2
January 28, 2018

We had another fun week. It was winter jackets and snow at the beginning and no coat scootering at the end of it. We went to the library and were excited to see they added two ipads to the computer section. The three year old went with me to get the cars and trains for the car and train table and wanted to return them before setting them up after I said ‘huh, oh look, they have ipads like at gramma’s library!’

It’s all about Roblox at the moment
January 10, 2018

So what do you do if your kid discovers computer games and watches computer game videos on youtube?

You fit as much education into that as possible!
