Hello! New to Unschooling
Umm Ilyas
Hi All!
My name is Darcy, and I am just starting our 'official' unschooling journey with our children, Ilyas (6) and Halemah (16 mo). I say 'official' as I find we've been unschooling all along, just didn't have a name for it!
We live in the Houston area and tried PS for a few weeks last fall. It didn't work for my son, nor for me (I am a horrible PS mom, I found). I then read a few John Holt books, which basically gave me the "OK" to do what my gut was telling me all along.
I've been reading through the messages and printed out the book list. Thank you so much for such a great resource!!
