Travel as Education
Moms View Message Board: Boredom Busters: Travel as Education
As some of you know I have taken up the adventure of homeschooling and I am loving perusing what some people are doing with their kids. I discovered these sites for Roadschooling. Parents use travel as a primary medium for conducting their lessons. Love this idea. Used to call my youngest my car baby. I did take the three of them from North to South on the East Coast and halfway across the US alone. I've loved every travel adventure with my kids. Anyone else do this? Some of the roadschool sites by the way are: http://www.familiesontheroad.com/roadschooling.html http://familyonbikes.org/blog/?p=153#comment-2588 http://www.examiner.com/x-24132-Roadschooling-Examiner~y2009m9d19-Roadschooling--Which-method-fits-you
There is an actual course that you can subscribe to free that helps you to set up "learning" experiences wherever you want to travel with your kids or travel based on what you're studying. Its free at TravelToLearn.com: http://homeschoolmailer.com/blog/ She e-mails you a piece every few days so you can plan into a vacation or trip for learning.
Cool.
