When we made our decision to live this unschooling life one of the main drivers was freeing our time to spend on the things we value. And one of those primary values is family relationships. Emma and I having wide open days whick allow us to spend time with her adult siblings. We can work around their schedules which are not as flexible. This fall a very special outing has been our Wednesday visits to see Alison at the University of Akron. We always eat lunch somewhere, purchase the weeks worth of bread from the Wonder outlet and have time for some campus style culture. So far we have watched cheerleaders being launched high into the sky by there male counter-parts, listened to several concerts outside of EJ Thomas Hall, poked around inside EJ looking at the acoustics and Architecture. We also explored an Anthropology display about what was unearthed of the original college buildings during the preparation for the new stadium. Emma was very interested in all the broken bottles, pieces of newspapers and photos. She also had a chance to use the Computer lab to play web kinz while Ali did some school work.
I love watching how comfortable she is in this environment. She is right at home walking around and watching.
