One of the great blessings of homeschooling is time<\/em>. It takes time to be able to surround yourself with nature and observe it throughout the year. Since we\u2019ve moved into the woods of Missouri my children\u2019s natural curiosity has propelled them to learn so many things. I am continually amazed by their knowledge of our environment! In many ways it has exceeded mine. I haven\u2019t done any formal training in this area of science with them. I simply ask questions to get them thinking and provide resources for them to find answers to their questions. <\/p>\n\n\n
