Reclaiming classical education and homeschooling from religious fanatics. I've been homeschooling in rural Minnesota for eleven years.
Today is sunny and 70°, so naturally we're going to spend it at the pond admiring the new babies. Math will still be there tomorrow.

We came for the weekly open gym for #homeschoolers today, and because nobody else showed up, my seven-year-old gets this entire set up to herself for an hour and a half. If you're a parent to a child with ADHD, this is the dream. 😆

Fool's spring has arrived in Minnesota so my little birder is out pishing, trying to lure out the birds. So far all she's done is irritate the chickadees, but she's not giving up.

This naughty girl became so enraged at the squirrel at the bird feeder, she expressed her anal glands onto the couch. 🙄
When I was a kid imagining adult life, cleaning anal glad secretions off the furniture definitely wasn't what I had in mind.

I made this caprese pizza for lunch today, and it was *chef's kiss* And actually pretty easy to throw together if you use a jar of premade pesto.

After over a decade of homeschooling, I have finally bought a laminator. It's just a little bit pathetic how excited I get when it's time to laminate a new math game. 😅

Another thing I like about homeschooling is that my kids get to be around our pets all day. I truly believe that humans have evolved to live alongside animals and being around them all day is better for our mental health.

If you're doing the Core Knowledge lesson on ancient Chinese characters (or heck, anything related to China at all) "Scroll" by Hui Li is a ridiculously fantastic read aloud.

One of the most important things you can do as a homeschooler is support your small local museums.

I live in Minnesota and have a heeler so I got stuck going for a walk the other day when it was -18°F. I'm pretty sure I have Stockholm Syndrome at this point.

We had to move our Thanksgiving to today, so now we're all hibernating on the couch with a mountain of blankets, sleeping off a ridiculous amount of smoked turkey and pie. Definitely my favorite part of the day.
