quote of the day and more on unschooling

"Schools have not necessarily much to do with education...they are mainly institutions of control where certain basic habits must be inculcated in the young. Education is quite different and has little place in school." ~ Winston Churchill


Here are some of our latest unschooling adventures.

A nature walk through our fields with some of our unschooling friends.



A field trip to a local fire station with our homeschooling group.

This was a field trip to the Oklahoma Museum of Osteology with our unschooling group. It was really cool!

  3. I have never before heard of unschooling. You are an incredible inspiration to those of us that could see the benefits of home educating, but knew something was missing. Thanks!

  4. I lived in Norman for four years (Boomer Sooner!) and grew up in Oklahoma City. I had no idea there was an Oklahoma osteology museum--very cool.
