The Mother's heart is the Child's Schoolroom
- Henry Ward Beecher
We do not school just in a room . . . we truly homeschool everywhere in our home.
. . . sometimes it's curled up together reading a book
. . . sometimes it's tasting new things even when they are "yucky!"
. . . sometimes the dining room table is turned into a laboratory
. . . sometimes it's on the floor learning with toys
. . . sometimes it's hands-on with a basket of quilted letters and a sweet book
. . . sometimes it's finding a quiet spot
. . . sometimes it's a FUN field trip!
. . . sometimes it's mixing an exciting concoction wearing a lab coat & goggles
. . . sometimes it's making a mess together in the kitchen
. . . sometimes it travels with us - like visiting Nana & Papa
. . . sometimes it's having someone to love beside you
. . . sometimes it's finding something to do for P.E. like ice skating
. . . sometimes it's pausing and having something to think about
. . . and drawing in our journals
. . . and sometimes, it's discovering squishy mud and making mud puddle soup!
. . . yet oftentimes, it's snuggled up under a blanket reading lots of books!
But, we did organize and create a learning space in our home . . .
which houses all the goodies we use to keep learning FUN!
Sometimes,
we may just school in here, too!
my heart is their school room.
