Just beginning to dip my toes into this lifestyle of Unschooling. Thank you for the list. My son was just given boxes of recycling ie other boxes and tubes and he has loved them!

I think I need to Unschool my mindset as I make this shift (or perhaps that goes along with the process). I begun being more observant of my son and what is grabbing his attention but also watching my mindset around what "what I think he should be doing"

As a home educator too, I so resonate with what you wrote here

"Unschooling isn't just about academics; it's about embracing a lifestyle of continuous exploration and discovery." I so relate. So so relate...

Thank you also for sharing your list...it's a wonderful resource.

🙌 Yay, fellow home edder! I love this community. Thanks for your kind words, I'm so happy it resonates with you, it's a lifestyle for sure and continue exploration and discovery is for the whole family isn't it. We're in it together!

Aaaah such a heart-filled list! I am considering homeschooling my daughters when the time will come (one is not two yet and the other one is still in the womb 😂). So glad I have found you, looking forward to diving into your experience!
