"you mentioned that you're not giving budget advice, but I recently saved a considerable amount of money at the Shedd Aquarium, Childrens Museum and Field Museum in Chicago by showing my laminated membership card from our NYC homeschool group and getting the educator's discount. As you know, these discounts are mean for schoolkids and their teachers so we should take advantage of them." Janet in NYC Shedd Aquarium, Childrens Museum, Field Museum in Chicago, USA

Your Tales

"We have been homeschooling for 3 years now and are preparing to leave to circumnavigate around the world by sailboat. We will be studying different countries, languages, Cultures and are excited. Thank you for sharing your website with us. It was enlightening. We have three highly gifted children and are confident that this will feed them more than sitting in a classroom." Thank You, Angel

Fearless moms! Just discovered your site. I am a Laguna Beach, CA mom, unschooling along with my student. I'm also a big believer in travel as education. In the past two years, we have traveled throughout France, to southern Mexico (Oaxaca), NYC, Boston, Cape Cod, Washington D.C., Hawaii and many others. I'd love to find other homeschoolers to travel with, or just rendezvous with for part of the trip. Our next idea is to explore the literary side of England (my student is a voracious reader and would like to visit anywhere having to do with the Chronicles of Narnia, Robin Hood, the Redwall series, Paddington Bear, etc. Just figured I'd contact you in case you ever hear of a homeschool travel association that pairs up traveling homeschoolers or (my latest hope) organizes home exchanges between homeschoolers in different lands.

Happy travels, Barb www.skateboardmom.com
