We started doing home school last week. I used to do it with my mom during the summers when I was little. It is just for fun, but we love it, (and it sure fills up the long morning hours).
My kids get very into it. They INSIST that we call roll and have show and tell every single day.
They love the science experiments and craft projects that we're doing. We did the Diet Coke and Mentos thing yesterday, and it was very cool. We also ordered a hanging butterfly habitat and a aquasaur tank. They came with live caterpillars and aquasaurs eggs. The kids are fascinated with them.
On Fridays, we go on "field trips". Last week, we went to this Indian museum in town that has a kid's area. This week, we went to a carnival. We are having fun.
