From my POV, it looks like a great family bonding experience :) I always wanted to homeschool my kids (back when I wanted to have them). I think it's really great that you're able to do it! Most people I talk to actually say it is a lot of fun once they get over the initial month or so of figuring out what works for them.

I feel OK. A little better but not great. It's kinda coming and going with having a fever and stuff. I was supposed to work my retail job today and called off. Hanging around and watching Netflix has been helpful. Aw, I love cats! I have 2 that were strays we adopted :3

what a horrible principal. It sounds like your family is going to benefit a lot from home schooling. I think you have a good opportunity to have the oldest teach some things to his younger siblings, at least if he is interested in doing that. It is very reinforcing of learning to teach someone else. And hopefully the two year old will get through the worst of the terrible twos before you know it :).

There are a lot of online resources for learning now... Your kids can watch lectures and do interactive quizzes and so on for any subjects you don't want to tackle alone. And you can learn along with your kids! Like a foreign language none of you know now, or programming in Python, or history of various countries around the world. It can be amazing :)

I'm excited about the result of the ears contest!! :Heart:

We actually use Epic Charter School homeschooling curriculum. It is absolutely wonderful. All I need is right there, each child has $800 a year to go towards learning materials, AND ITS FREE!

oh, nice! That school looks like it is great for most subjects, and your sons will get online teachers to help you out. With that system you should have confidence it will work out great!

The Epic school does appear to have a weakness in math education though, so watch that closely...

yes it certainly does. That's the one subject my oldest has a little bit of trouble or in. But he has a 94 so I can't complain too much.

Good morning, my friends! 🌅

Ticket count for the Wellness Weekend Raffle 🛁 and 🎁 complementary gifts is above, last day today! You can look up the prizes at page 26 in this thread.

Please remember that today is also the last day you are able to enter the :rage1: Zombie Chronicles contest. It is closing at midnight.

Tomorrow, a new more complex HA raffle 🙊 opens which lasts all March to start off the spring season. 🌻

The Let´s spread some love contest is closed and all prizes were sent out, thank you so much for your participation! Let´s spread some love even when no contest is around! <3

We had to change to the ginger tea because we didn´t get sage in the shops. It was yummy! I hope you feel better today! ^-^

I am so sorry to hear about this, bullying is always a very serious thing, especially in that age! And we´re always here for you to hear your sorrows and for you to vent! ^-^ I understand it is a more small city where you live and all people know another, that´s hard to change things. Otherwise, I would have recommended to change schools to give the kids a new start.

In Germany, homeschooling is not allowed. Police will come and fetch your children when they don´t attend school without being sick / ill. Is there a curriculum you have to stick to? Are there exams or such for the kids? Field trips sounds nice, too, you can learn amazing things there! Edit: Ah, just read about your Epic Charter School curriculum, this answers that part….

I think I never had a Mojito, LOL, is there a non-alcoholic version of this?

I hope you feel better today! Do something nice again, that helps, too! ^-^

How are you, love? Did you get all the hearts you wanted? Did you slot for anything nice? ^-^

You okay? No water or storm damage done, I hope! <3

Hello, all :) In the beautiful sunny morning ^^ Hey hey, dear! ^^ I am very fine, spring is coming and I feel it in my bones ^^ Yes! I slotted the ball dress from Crescenta and two auras from Disasters :)

I was being nosy and read other replies lol. That's interesting to hear homeschooling isn't allowed! You can't have a kid enrolled in public school and have them just not go or the police might come/you get fined.

I only saw a little bit of the homeschooling convo but are your kids involved in any local homeschooling groups/clubs? I worked at a museum for a summer that had some great resources for homeschooled kids, like an engineering club and a maker's camp and stuff like that.

I slotted for the ball gown, too! I vowed NOT TO GET ANY MORE GOWNS because I wasn´t able to wear all of mine last Masquerade, LOL, yet I sold a golden one and this new dress of the series looks a little bit different from the others because of the embroidery so I thought it would be nice to have, LOL. So we can be Masquerade twins again! We can make new cute pics then during dancing! <3

Which auras are you referring to? The mouse ones? Or the glowsticks? I have the original mouse and the light blue stick.

The thread is for reading and writing so no harm done here, LOL ^-^

Yes, some time is tolerated yet after school didn´t hear from you or your physician, the call goes out. First, parents are going to be invited to school for a talk yet when there is no convention, police is coming in daily to fetch the child and drive it to school. Here tops the right to education the freedom of free decision.....

Yes! I actually love buying gowns and never have enough of them ^^ I am happy we can be masq twins again! Crescenta has really nice designs ^^ And I usually buy even not to wear and more to collect because I like them ^^

The mouse auras! :D

I am happy we can use all of them for contests, though. However, there are only few CWs from which I buy more than one these days, have to be very versatile ones then. Shoes, for example. Which reminds me, wasn´t your plan to release some cute strapped boots? ^-^ :-)

I wanted to release boots but all creators I like are closed for commission now :(

I see. I wish the girl would still be around who did Snowladies and Rose Cut Heels, they are so gorgeous and dainty and make the feet look much smaller. Actually, Subeta HAs have some kind of hobbit feet to cover, LOL

Oh yes, hobbitses ^^ I like the doll overall but the feet are really BIG ^^ Not everyone can do nifty shoes or boots. I hope soon I can have someone do some for me :)

The half osxies Cathii made are beautiful, too.

I am not after oxsies too much, I think they are too similar to gino rossi shoes I once had, which were terribly uncomfortable ^^

Really? I thought they are kinda cozy, with being open at the back and such. In RL, however, I hate to break in new shoes. I have much more Subeta shoes than RL shoes, LOL.

I knew that you love them but yes, I am not that fond of them ^^ In real life I have really small amount of shoes ^^

Yes, I have 3 pairs of boots for winter and a hand full of shoes for summer and nothing for in between, LOL

Btw, how do you like the new Sbq? Totally not my cup of tea yet I think you know that, LOL
