What Home Education Looks Like - 30th August 2013

Right now my children are in Cornwall with me and their dad and grandparents, watching me perform in Tartuffe at the Minack Theatre!

You should be able to see us (or at least me!) on the webcams below!



If anyone manages to grab any screenshots please let me know and I'll paste them up here when we get back!

What Home education Looks Like - 16th August 2013

A trip to the grandparents' (whose nasturtiums are more abundant than ours!) meant a chance to stock up our butterfly jar with caterpillars.




It's difficult to spot them all but we took away a jar crammed full of cabbage white caterpillars, plus a couple of unidentified green ones. Oh and the little yellow dots are eggs for even more! Can't wait to see how many butterflies we get.

What Home Education Looks Like - 9th august 2013

It was Papaya's 9th Birthday last weekend and she was very excited to get two easels (one little, one big!) from people who know her really well :D

The big easel has already been put to good use, both inside and out and is inspiring her to paint more.






The little easel is super cute, but she is saving it for use in the campervan and on our trip to the Minack Theatre in Cornwall at the end of this month.

What Home Education Looks Like - 2nd August 2013

In yet another home ed cliché we now own a campervan!


So far all we've done is bought it home to our front drive.... we did eat in it and spend one night though!




The exciting bit will be when we take it to Cornwall in August! It's unlikely we'll get to keep this one permanently but it's a nice trial run till we get one to do some proper travelling in!
