    Hello,

    This forum looks very informative. My name is Erin and I have a 10 year old homeschooler, who just started back up homeschooling after being in PS for a couple of years. Her interests are animals (she wants to be a vet when she grows up), Neopets, Nintendogs, swimming, American Girl dolls.

    We will focus more on unschooling than curriculum, but open to everything. I also have a 3 year old son, no emphasis on "schooling" for him yet, he knows his ABCs, can count quite high and loves music.

    Welcome to the homeschoolspot, it is a very informative place most of the time. We talk about school stuff, life stuff, and all kinds of concerns here.

    I homeschool my 4 kids, ages 5, 6 and twins that are 8. My daughter wants to be a vet too. as far as homeschooling we just kind of "wing it". We don't follow a certian curiculium.

    feel free to add to any discussions, hope you feel welcome here.

    by the way my name is Amy :)

    My kids are 6, 9, and 11. My middle one (DD) is into horses, and my youngest DS has talked about being a vet or working at the zoo. (He has also talked about being a cowboy....)

    Welcome, Starlight!

    I'm in my first "official" year of homeschooling my 6yo son and 4yo daughter (both in Kindergarten curriculum). I think you'll find lots of great information and a great support group on this board.

    Hello and Welcome!

    I homeschool my 3 children, ages 14, 12 and 8 (almost 9). This is our 8th year of homeschooling and we love it still! My oldest is in 10th grade and wants to homeschool through highschool. I love having my kids home with me (most of the time! :lol: ), so that's fine with me! I need help with highschool classes though, so my dh has taken over the Geometry and Biology classes! The other two are in 7th grade and 4th grade.

    I really enjoy this site and the people I interact with here! I hope you will too!

    Again, WELCOME!
