134: Do Unschoolers Need Holidays?

This week, I'm sharing my story Funny How Things Change. It's about school term time and holidays. It's also a typical day story.

I'm also discussing the questions:

• How did our attitude towards holidays change when we became unschoolers?
• Do unschoolers need holidays?
• If we want our kids to respond to our strewing invitations, do we need to respond to theirs?
• Do we have to be prepared to give our time and full attention to our kids?

Also:

• I talk about homeschool record keeping
• I have some resources to share
• I reveal what happened to my Catholic Radical Unschool Cheese blog
• And I tell you about some changes to my unschooling blog
