Tuesdays

Tuesdays are by far the busiest "home"school day we have.. Cookie goes to lunch, Chapel, Musical Theatre, Bible Club, and Piano. When that is over I zoom to pick her up and have a 2 hour window then I drop her off to chorus for 2 hours. By the time we get back home it's between 8:30 or 9:00 at night. While she is out Rocco, Noahkeem & Dolly do math, grammar reading and laundry.

Noahkeem thought that doing laundry and housework wasn't "school". That made me laugh. I explained to him that " most 5 year old boys have no clue what it means to sort laundry, wash it, dry it, fold it nicely and put it away. They have no clue what it means to dust a shelf, sweep a floor and snuggle with Mom while she reads Charlotte's Web in the middle of the afternoon. He on the other hand is being equipped with all these skills and in the long run will be a better man. So it is school Noahkeem, it's called Home Economics and Relationships 101.
