Learning about Car Engines

 
 


O has been learning all about cars lately, since she's been spending more one-on-one time with Elliott. He's thrilled that she is so interested! He has taught her to check the oil, change the battery, wash the car, etc. He wants her to watch him change the oil, but I have to be out there to supervise that since he'll be under the car (and we don't want her wandering the garage without supervision) :) I guess this qualifies as "unschooling!"

  3. Arin loves to help her daddy with that kind of thing too. I think it's so cute to see the two of them bonding together.

  4. Jake wanted to learn about the car at that age too. Unfortunately for him, he asked me to tell him about all the parts. I tried not to make too much up. LOL!

    I have to tell you, I am so impressed with your Montessori home schooling! I wish I had it in me to homeschool.
