Then you’d love Charlotte Mason method of learning. We are homeschooling and grateful that we found a CM provider in our country 🙂

I love this so much! Society puts so much pressure on what young children should know that LIFE is left out.

I just have to say this is my first year we are going to be homeschooling. While researching I came along a list that was shorter than this one and almost made no sense to me. EVERYTHING on this list made sense to me and was a joy to read. Thank you!!

In reply to Caitlin. maybe you should question what the teachers have to do to children and the research they come up with because SCHOOL CERTAINLY DOES NOT WORK FOR MOST CHILDREN THEY ARE DISRESECTED CONSTANTLY AT SCHOOL INSTEAD OF TAKING OFFENCE THINK how does this affect children to be forced to do things they don't want or need to do

Thank you SO incredibly much for this simple, lovely little post about little 6 year olds. What they need is so basic. Love and play. I needed this so much today. Sometimes we start listening to others opinions a little too much and start to wonder if we are doing the right things for our kids. We second guess ourselves so much as moms. Today is my birthday and I have stopped everything to play with my daughter all day (she will be 6 in April) because she told me she wanted me to have the best birthday ever. She knew that what I really wanted to do was to play with her all day 🙂 Thank you again for your post. It’s just lovely!
