This week on the farm, we harvested honey from our honeybee hives! That's right, the delicious liquid gold flowed into quart after quart jar leaving us all with a slight sugar rush and feeling like a heat stroke was immanent. Why? Let's just say you can't press honeycomb without heat and without getting the honey on your fingers. Since moving to the farm our son, Gabriel, has been … [Read more...] about Harvesting Honey

There was a little strut and everything! Following our trip to the Library we proceeded to read all about Corn Snakes, Black Mambas, Rattlesnakes, and King Cobras. Yes, there was a theme. Gabriel may or may … [Read more...] about A Week in the Life of Unschoolers

A Doctor Who, Paleobiology, and Minecraft Kind of Week
As Unschoolers our children choose what and when they want to learn something. We never force learning because we have found that our children learn better, and are happier when they get to decide what it is they want to learn about. Their love of learning blossomed when we got out of their way and let them take the lead in their education. This post may contain affiliate links. … [Read more...] about A Doctor Who, Paleobiology, and Minecraft Kind of Week
