a tried and true homeschool material. Teachingyour children through the use of story books has long been alynchpin in child education. Children’s magazines are alsoanother great source of learning and discovery for children.Animal stories are among some of the most popular. One advantageto magazines is that they stay current and each issue is just abit different. Last, and probably least is television. That is if you carefullymonitor not only the programs that your child watches but theamount of time spent watching television. Don’t ever substitutetelevision (or any other automated type of medium such ascomputers) for hands on learning from their parent. With all ofthe technology available this can easily happen. Remember one ofthe great advantages to homeschooling is to be able to spendmore time with your child and to directly control theireducational experience. Slipping into too much computer and/ortelevision time defeats the purpose of the homeschooling time. When it comes to homeschooling children, your resources areunlimited and so is your child’s ability to learn. Their worldis boundless and so should be your creativity.
