Gearing back up for homeschool

I have been surfing the net for better ways to homeschool my children. We are a mix of unschooler/eclectic/waldorf inspired homeschoolers. I have tried out many different things and have found that a lot of it doesn’t really work for my kids or our lives.  I must admit that in the past I have let the pressure of family and friends influence our homeschooling.  Bad bad me! lol.  This summer I quit my job ( I lasted a whole year) to come back to being at home. The year of working really messed up our schooling. It was almost like my kids got a year off from school. This year we are back. I’m getting back to the things that I find important and finding new things that will work for my kids. We will be using some waldorf inspired learning styles and nature inspired learning.

I will be sharing with you reviews of everything we try out along with the normal craftiness you get here.  I’m also an independent consultant for Usborne books. My kids really enjoy the books that we get from there. You will be hearing about that too.
