Reclaiming Wonders

Controversial…. but the best way to homeschool? 🚙🥾🌳 Away from the desk! Let’s reframe learning and go on a family adventure. (And quit being such a rule-following homeschool mom. I see you!) 🏛️Look for local history spots. Even the tiniest city museums are often great places to learn. 👉History learning doesn’t just happen at the biggest and “best” places. 🗽Look for the unique. What is something that you can’t do at home. Museum? Unique landform to explore? National cemetery? Music venue? Landmark? Goofy roadside attraction? 👉 @TripAdvisor is great for helping find these! 🌳Look for nature activities. Kid adventures can be as simple as a short hike. And these are often cheap or free. 👉You don’t even have to use an app and identify plants for it to “count”. 🥏Look for sport opportunities. PE totally counts as learning; it’s “required” after all. 👉 Simple counts… a nature walk, scooter trail, disc golf course, or pickle ball court. 🤯 Look for growth opportunities. The kids practiced a skill Or asked questions of the docent Or did something that made them nervous. 👉Just watch and wait for it to happen. ❤️ Look at the family bonding. Not everything needs to be a skill or fact learned. Let them play and grow together and just enjoy being a family. . . 😉😉Share this with your uptight homeschool mom friend who needs to allow some learning fun! ❓Or maybe it’s just you who needs the reminder. 🤔 . . .
