stuck in africa

I don't know who I was kidding - apparently myself.

This past summer I found out Jamie Martin from SimpleHomeschool.net was having a summer reading club to complement her new book Give Your Child the World: Raising Globally Minded Kids One Book at a Time. It sounded amazing so that was our summer reading plan! You can read about my plan here: Learning About Our World! 

A week to explore, learn, and read about an entire continent? Not nearly enough time.  It's now January and we are still in Africa (mostly enamored with the wildlife.) Part of me (the type A, former public school teacher part) has a hard time with that since we are no longer "on schedule." Luckily, the homeschool mom part of me is reminding me, "Who cares!?!? My kids are loving learning!"
