But I think this year will be easier and much more enjoyable. (Although I don't have too many complaints about last year.) <br /><br />Oh no. Not 8 hours every day outside! I mean 8 hours of free play. But lots of freedom to go outside and explore. I never really thought about how much they learn through play until that day! Ever since then I have started noticing more and more!MommyMayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14895017376704760161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3545819986034745425.post-3087382164671265202014-07-02T16:49:57.122-07:002014-07-02T16:49:57.122-07:00Seems like your journey to live the type of school...Seems like your journey to live the type of school life you want is going fairly well. I never realized you had so many doubts you always seemed so put together and like you knew exactly what you were doing to me. The only thing I do not agree with in this post is kids spending 8 hrs a day outside. As a child I would have gone mad (I was homeschooled) and my kids would go mad now spending that much of their day outdoors. I also think this is a child to child practice. Some kids just don't like the outdoors and where as my kids spend a lot of time outdoors it is nowhere near 8 hours. I don't think they would thrive being out for so long. They like the outdoors in doses =) Mrollan87https://www.blogger.com/profile/02710307161535951594noreply@blogger.com
