Homeschooling Extras: How do the extras help you meet your goals?

Perhaps you might want to engage in some engineering games?

Being surprised at how a task can be done so differently by two people.  It’s amazing.

or engage in an archery lesson or two?

And suddenly develop a father son bonding time that you didn’t expect.

Or even teach the value of community service?

Doing regular service with an agency in need of help builds community bonding and teaches

children so much about others.  Seeing others through their eyes is helpful as well.

You can make the Middle Ages come alive.

And listen to your child tell you how things would really be back in the day.

What we do when we educate our children matters.  What subjects we teach are just there as a vehicle to teach our children the love of learning.  It’s good to have order and a goal in mind, but our children can teach themselves once they learn how to do so.  🙂    Make it fun, work through the drudgery, and engage your children in their learning and they will be hooked on learning for life.

Is that not our goal?

I am a child of God, much loved by my pastor hubby, and caring for a delightful boy.   We follow a mixed up style of homeschooling, on a casual year round basis.   We learn, we love, we enjoy life.   We serve God as best we can while we raise our bunny rabbits.  🙂
