Experiences and opportunities

Rebecca Justus, from a longer chart about unschooling (linked below):

Live your lives and trust that learning will happen around and within all your activities.

Realize that life is full of experiences, that the world is full of opportunities. Enjoy them! Enjoy many of them together!

—Rebecca Justus

Instead of schoolish ideas...

Rebeccas Justus, when she was new to unschooling, created an inspired and inspiring list of the differences between schoolishness and unschooling. There are two dozen sets. Here are a few to make your day lighter:

---

instead of "Instill knowledge" :

Trust that learning is natural; trust that children are interested in life

instead of "Follow a schedule" :

Flow with the moment, with the inspiration

instead of "Memorize facts" :

Understand stories
