Spreading the Feast, for the Differently Wired Child

You don't have to be around the Charlotte Mason Community for long before you hear the term "Spreading the Feast." Often this term is used to describe the program, or the variety of subjects we provide our students through our curriculum choices. The term comes from Charlotte Mason herself, who said: "We spread an abundant...

After Unschooling

Well if you are here that means you are looking for information on Unschooling. Welcome! Unfortunately, while I really enjoyed our years as Unschoolers we have moved on from this style of schooling.
