The more they learn and know EARLY on, the more they will be able to learn and know all thru life. All knowledge, like everything else in the Universe - is linked. Be sure to explain the Latin & Greek nomenclature - it is marvelously descriptive and the definitions will stick with the kids all thru their lives and they will be able to extrapolate that information and fold it into other aspects of learning. <br /><br />Lichengirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09691985214967918081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301339598672214461.post-85210391868923298522015-05-23T13:28:38.642+10:002015-05-23T13:28:38.642+10:00They look super yummy, and sound like they're ...They look super yummy, and sound like they're made from a good healthy recipe too!

She wants to learn so badly, but due to her being on the younger side, and her social anxiety Im thinking home schooling might be a great option for her... either short term or long term.<br />I was wondering how you know what to teach your children. I had a look at your blog and Im thinking 'WOW, I would never have thought of that.' A little advice would be helpful :-) If you have the time.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06457323412819600149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301339598672214461.post-2914986008024957612014-02-27T18:00:33.639+11:002014-02-27T18:00:33.639+11:00http://www.handsfreemama.com/ says in a better way...http://www.handsfreemama.com/ says in a better way than I can why I gave up FB!<br /><br />I guess the only way to see which option is best (if you are having doubts) is to try both.

I find your blog absolutely fascinating. Andrew (Banks)would home educate Emily if he didn't have to work but she does seem to like school - well mostly.<br /><br />How do you know which is the best option for the child school or home ed?

School is the best option for many, home education is the best option for many others. It's just a shame that lots of people don't know that the option exists or that many others are also doing it and that there is lots of support and social opportunity out there.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08562900259615979151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301339598672214461.post-843929004871496612014-02-19T05:03:57.281+11:002014-02-19T05:03:57.281+11:00I think it is wonderful that some parents are will...I think it is wonderful that some parents are willing to take on the challenge of their children education. I'm sure it is a rewarding experience and I agree with many of the points above. I love the idea that you want to spend so much time with your children and of course they will have a much better experience than a mainstream school.<br />I can see that you are totally committed this and I wish you all the luck with it. I am a teacher in England and while I cannot offer anything like the interactive curriculum that you do, I try my best (33 kids, lots of issues). I think the home education system is only effective if the parents are as dedicated as you are, Many of the children I work with would have little or no education if left with their parents all day ("I don't have time to read with them at night, it takes too long!" - comment by a parent when asked to read with her child for 10 minutes once a week.) <br />In these cases I think mainstream is a much better option, I may not have the time to spend with each individual but at least I want to spend time with them and plan learning so that the children can access it.<br /><br />Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301339598672214461.post-78055385199603214492013-11-24T21:48:49.820+11:002013-11-24T21:48:49.820+11:00oh wow - i love these family tree ideas - will be ...oh wow - i love these family tree ideas - will be using for inspiration for sure! thanksLinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02108015164842341782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301339598672214461.post-28423463311165824482013-10-27T10:55:49.910+11:002013-10-27T10:55:49.910+11:00Helen!
