Get the world swirling


If you want unschooling to work just because you stick the curriculum under the couch, it won't! Get the world swirling around you (first) and your children (second) so there are sounds, sights, smells, tastes and textures for them to process and build their internal model of the universe from. GET MOVING, mentally and physically.

  1. I think it's pretty cool that I have some of those chess pieces (from a Care Package of Weirdness sent last year) in your linked photo. As soon as I saw them I smiled. Another connection made in a ongoing web of learning and experience. :-)

  2. You have ALL of those and some more. :-)

    When I went to see the photo of chess pieces there before making this comment, what *I* like is that the blog post about that page is ON that page (at the bottom, where "Just Add Light" shows each day, on an obsure page, sitting quietly. :-)
