Welcome to another week in the life of unschoolers. This is were I fill you in on all the goings on and adventures we had with our children during the week.

Our Favorite Children’s Books
Looking back on our unschooling year I realized....we've read a load of books! We seem to be a family of book lovers, and I am totally thrilled about this. Our son, Gabriel, managed to read 100 books between August and December of 2015! All of them just for the simple joy that reading brings him.
