Over at The Lilting House we’re having a discussion about why people choose to homeschool, and why people who don’t shouldn’t be worried about those of us who do. Come give your two cents!

Thanks for directing us back to that discussion, because it really is an interesting one. Once again, Lissa, you are the ultimate spokeswoman for living and learning joyfully at home (and at the pool and the park and the library and the nature center and . . . .)

In 2006, a year after I began this blog, I coined the term Tidal Homeschooling to describe my family’s homeschooling style, an ebb and flow of
high tide (planned, Charlotte Mason-ish) and low tide (unschoolish, delight directed) learning. You’ll sometimes see me call it Tidal Learning. Seventeen years later (and counting), the metaphor still works. At the time of this writing (January 2023), I’m enjoying tidal homeschooling with Huck and Rilla, my two youngest, now in their teens.

If you’d like to read more about tidal homeschooling, there are a bunch of posts at this link.
