Comments on: Unschooling ~ How It Can Look In The Real World https://www.naturalbeachliving.com/unschooling/ educating children with hands on activities Mon, 11 Sep 2023 16:20:57 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Teneal https://www.naturalbeachliving.com/unschooling/#comment-304421 https://www.naturalbeachliving.com/?p=9924#comment-304421 You are my spirit animal! I love this so much. We currently live in Bahrain (military orders) but will be back in the US by 2021. We’ve traveled around in Europe and are hopeful to travel Asia now as well (we’ll see?). But, this is my ideal for our unschooling journey! Although we live right on the water now, it’s a million degrees outside and we just can’t spend our days in 120* weather! I plan to keep up with your blog as we continue this journey <3
Thanks again!

Late response but my boys are 8.5, almost 6 and almost 3. Number four is due in the spring. It is an adventure to unschool them as they are so different. The biggest tip I can give is to learn how each of them learn and connect to the world. That makes strewing resources so much easier. I try to spend some time each week observing them as individuals to discover their interests and methods and make brief notes of what they have been up to. Not only does this give me a starting point for finding things (books, shows, toys, etc) to encourage their interests, it also gives me a written record of their learning journey for my own enjoyment as well as to share with my home school facilitator. It doesnt have to be complicated at all.
A couple unschooling blogs I love are Stories of an Uschooling Family and These Temporary Tents.

We’ve done a bit of unschooling and Charlotte Mason and Teaching Textbooks along with lots of volunteering and real life. It’s not what I originally planned, but it’s what’s worked with our life and limited resources.

Any tips on managing four separate interests?
