~ Interactive Education ~

"I am in shock.. how old is he?"
I have been asked many times from random strangers who have observed our 2 (now nearly 3) year olds spelling abilities.


My husband and I have been educating our children through various fun activities tailored to their personal preferences. Some of these many activities have been exploring together some preschool aps, educational videos, and interactive songs and drawing.


I often see studies discussion parents who use media as a distraction to keep them quiet it can harm a child's development.However I wish to share that with proper application / guided use these things can help teach our children more effectively then our current school system.
(Since the internet is really addicting using it regularly with the kiddos is an oppertunity to excercize self control)

I believe parents were designed go be the original educators of their children.

The lifestyle of our time makes this difficult for many people.
As a side effect it is our children who suffer in their development and perception of reality.


Our current world is designed to create workers, not educated humans equally.
So people are often forced to choose between living neccessities or involvement in their childrens lives.

I planned to wait until my children were old enough to demonstrate their knowledge before speaking about it~ but truthfully so far It has been astounding hearing peoples comments.

We followed our inner knowledge from our own childhood memories to reflect how we function and tailored this to our childrens specific preferred ways of learning.


~As kids we all deeply desire to learn and understand our world ~
I believe that every child is a genius, and that behavioral problems are oten the side effects of missing life expiriences.

I Invite all to join us on our adventure.
(Also hope to network with other parents along the way!)


Over the next little while we will collectively observe what happens when we shift our focus from endlessly racing to keep up with our bills to better preparing our children for life?
