lifelong learning

observations from the life of one homeschooling family

Tuesday, September 20, 2005

We spent the morning finishing the 3rd book in the Narnia series: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. This led to a dicussion about metaphor, and the concept of the divine within. We also counted money, and played rhyming games, before setting out to ride the half-tandem back from his grandparents house. We discussed traffic & bicycle safety on our journey.

After a stop at the toy store for some window shopping, we came home & he played with the neighbor boy, catching bugs & watering the garden.

After dinner, we attended a fabulous show by a guy named Jungle Terry, who has a collection of exotic animals, which he travels with for entertainment & educational purposes. This show was at the library, and the sunchild got picked to be a volunteer helper. His job was to hold a chinchilla. We are now considering adding some sort of small creature to our household, but much research will need to be done first.
