The latest issue of the home education magazine EOS is now out.
The latest big question is “how will they do their GCSEs?”
There is an article looking at an alternative vision for schools, unschooling and Shakespeare. Plus make a gingerbread house, story books to read together at Christmas and making Christmas memories.
Possibly my favourite article this issue is Paula Cleary’s joyful piece on the importance and joy of music.
DD2 has just received her first issue of Okido, the arts and science magazine for kids.
She is 3 and has enjoyed reading through it together. Her 7 year old sister is jealous and keeps walking off with it.
The illustrations are beautiful and very varied. The writing has them both engaged. Each themed issue, our first is biodiversity, includes stories, facts, puzzles, comic strips, things to make, games and puzzles. It is quirky and very different to mainstream mags.
Thoroughly recommend it.
Lovely day celebrating home education with bubbles and sand at the Diana Memorial Playground.
Lovely weather and fun playing with old friends and meeting new ones. 
Girls particularly love the pirate ship and the little swinging boats. E of course made a new friend and T loved the bubbles.
