Ems can wear slippers to school.

I love that, people would actually call me to babysit their sick child when daycare wouldn't take them. UGH

 

Making ornaments can be turned into science, history, math, and art.

On winter mornings we can cuddle up on the couch drinking hot coco while everyone is outside walking.

 

We can go outside in the afternoon in the winter, which seems to be the warmest part of day.

 

If it's not working (curriculum) I can change it. No questions ask.

 

We are fulfilling what God said, "Parents, train up your child in the way they should go...!"

 

My 10yo dd doesn't have peer pressure to wear almost nothing with high heels!!! (WHY do parents let their little girls wear that stuff?!!!)

 

My kids realize that, "yes learning can too be fun!!!"

 

My kids actually like me and want to hang out with me!

 

No one will make my son say "yes" instead of "do."

ie--would you like Froot Loops for breakfast? Do!

 

What could be more comforting than tackling a difficult phonics lesson with a kitten asleep on your lap?

 

taking a walk out in the woods, if you need to look for something to do with science and find something else too and just take your time and enjoy it.

 

Afternoons playing board games with the kids and calling it school. lol.

 

Taking the time to learn about any point of interest you want to.

 

No snow days to make up for!

 

A day in the snow can be an education!

 

Taking the dog for a walk anytime during the day.

 

Playing in the mud can be soil science.

 

Spending two hours on science lesson because dd couldn't wait to get to the next experiment. Trying the experiment many different ways, not just the one from the book. (Happened today!!!!)
