Unschooling
So, what is that?
Why do you do it?
Is that legal?
1. Unschooling is a form of home education and a great description can be found by clicking on the button on my blog. And lots of people choose this form of education. We are not the only weirdo’s out there!
2. Over the years we have tried to “Train up a child in the way he should go [and in keeping with his individual gift or bent], and when he is old he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6-the Amplified Bible) For us, this involves educating each child according to their particular gifts and needs. Sometimes that has been at home, sometimes at school, sometimes it has been a wonderful combination of the two. And, I think that God, in His wisdom uses our bent, or gifts, to accomplish this….unschooling is more intuitive for me. As I capture the moments and direct the kids and let their interests lead, I also disciple and encourage and help them grow…we still think. And David and I both want educated adults coming out of our house. That is a major goal of ours. Christ followers, leaders, lovers of life and people….our kids!
3. Yes. We are enrolled as a home school under the North Carolina Department of Education. The rules and regulations are on the Dept. of Education website if you are interested.
While I do unschoool anyone that is home schooled, each year you will find different kids different places. As of Dec 2012, only one of our school-aged kids is home schooled. We have learned that at different times, kids need different things. How do you educate your children? I would love to hear your thoughts….

Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and
said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and
screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
