It's a new era in homeschooling.
When parents can find freedom from the old ways, the old rules.
And children can explore and learn, free labels and boxes.
Let's go.
If you're looking for a homeschool experience that's more than just school at home , listen to our episode Where We Think Differently About Homeschool.
What is an enchanted education? Does it require handmade aprons and a chicken coop? Or a chalkboard wall and twinkle lights? Can our kids experience an enchanted education in a less-than-enchanting environment? One with dishes in the sink, laundry on the couch, and a dog barking at the Amazon delivery during read aloud?
Julie Bogart tells us that all we need for an enchanted education is a special connection.
That special connection can be with Minecraft or LEGOs or stop-motion animation.
Or maybe playing restaurant or creating comics or re-arranging a bedroom.
It's all enchanting. It's all learning.
What's enchanting your kids lately?
