That's all 4 of us content listening to Great Northern? From the Swallows and Amazons series. Older kids will be transported for a few hours now. . . . . . #bliss #swallowsandamazons #booklove #peaceandquiet #sleepingbaby #happymama #learninginourownenvironment #aloveofbooks #famkesselsAfternoon naps in the hammock. . . . . . #bliss #dontstopswingingThe first of the Summer's runs-through-the-sprinkler. I love listening to Joss's distinctive giggle as she delights in play. So much of the time I'm inside on the couch breastfeeding and listening to their enthusiasm as they play outside. It's heaven. . . . . . #plusshesgorgeous #raisingarevolution #famkessels #unbridledjoyofchildrenCuisinere Rods for the win!! I loved playing with these at primary school, and a couple of conversations about numbers have happened that had me thinking they'd be a welcome addition to our lives. And here they are. . . . . . #mathslearningathome #unschoolingmaths #theydontknowitsmaths #mathsmemories #learninginourownenvironment #famkesselsSo much learning in having a baby in the house. So much. I'm so honoured to be showing my kids what having a baby is like, what birthing is like, what responsive, connected parenting looks like. I've fallen in love all over again with my husband who gets that the way to be supportive is to do ALL THE THINGS except the things he can't, like breastfeeding. I love that Joss is learning about the physical demands of having a baby, from pregnancy through birth and then post-partum. I love that we talk about all of it so that it won't be a mystery. I love that they get to care for another human being, like this photo shows. I love that they are teaching me about existing in multiple realities, like the one where they hate their new brother who ruins everything, and the one where they can't get enough of the smell of his head. . . . . . #learninginourownenvironment #newbabynewlearning #raisingarevolution #bigbrothercuddles #oxytocinforeveryone #famkesselsScreen time. Always a much discussed topic on any Unschooling forum. I admire and respect families that can Unschooling screens, but have made peace with the fact that we can't. Screen time is managed in our house - its negotiable, fluid, and dynamic, but it is limited.This was our Saturday night - first we worked on our latest 1000 piece puzzle, then after the dishes we played this super cool card game, Bohnanza. We had so much fun! We went to bed late, and with full hearts. . . . . . #raisingarevolution #holdingontoourkids #playingtogether #connectionparenting #ragingsaturdaynightantics #noplaceidratherbeThe newest revolution raiser. I think he's pretty spectacular.Haven't been posting much, on the blog or on here... so much going on, and a lot of it stuff we want to keep for our family, and then I get tongue tied about what to share. But, this photo we took last week pretty much sums up life at the moment. Ron's home, we have lazy mornings and lots of family time, kids are happy and life (just like our bed) is full. . . . . . #raisingarevolution #learninginourownenvitonmrnt #familybed #roomforonemoresomewhere #officiallyunschoolingtwokids #papashome #everyoneshappyTalking About
