Adorable! The ABC song is one that can be learned early, so go for it.
I think your presence is the greatest gift you can give to a child. We have three kids in our lives: 5, 7, and 10, and when school was cancelled this year we homeschooled them. Er essentially, it was "unschooling"—no math, or reading/writing curriculum. Instead, we offered experiences. Most days, we started with a fire in the woods, with songs and prayers. Then we let the kids direct us on where they wished to be guided: art, exercise... It turned into a "school" of body, heart, mind, soul, and spirit. Definitely aligns with our higher calling in life, so we're planning to keep the ball rolling even when the public education gets kicking.
I think it's great that you rolled with it when school got cancelled. Personally, I feel it was a blessing in disguise. Obviously it's a matter of perspective.
☝️ I love that! I also love this 👇
We're of like mind.
I wouldn't say I'm anti curriculum, but I definitely lean towards letting her interest guide our focus.
Are you considering keeping them homeschooled?
Thanks for your meaningful reply. Yep, we're thinking of continuing the good thing we've started, with our homeschooling routine, although we're also planning to "plug in" with the virtual school system once that gets rolling. That way, we can see if the online curriculum serves us. If not, we'll go 100% independent.
