Rose Lane Farm

Last week we took a field trip to the farm of a fellow homeschooling family.

The day ended with a few fun activities for the children and a picnic lunch in the back yard.

What a fun day with other homeschooling families learning and fellowshipping together.

Just another reason I love homeschooling. We have opportunities to learn in the real world., learning through experience. My goal is to open up a huge world for Hope. Learning is about experiencing, not just reading about the experience of someone else. 

What types of experiences are you having this year?
