Homeschool Garden

This is a magical place. I have watched so many kids grow up at this preschool and… it’s just very different. It was all new to me, and to be honest I was a little reluctant at first but they use two amazing systems of child care: RIE (Resources for Infant Educare) and Waldorf. It’s basically how we should all have been raised and respectful and inspiring and the kids get to discover themselves while learning natural boundaries to allow others to learn about themselves. They garden and eat good food and have chickens and NO MEDIA!!! They play outside and with toys that are not part of the mass consumer blarg (disney!). It’s amazing to see kids not buried in technology… but rather immersed in playing and each other. I wanted to learn so much that I volunteered there once a week for a year or two. I can’t say enough about how it is actually possible to make great humans by starting when they are young using these thoughtful systems… and learning them decoded my own less than ideal childhood experiences making me a much better parent and person. I am a believer… if you hadn’t figured it out. Go and check it out and see what I am babbling adoringly about.
