Homeschooling
We try to meet up every year with my sister and her kids in October so we can go to Disneyland during Halloweentime. The cousins have a week off in October, but we do not so the Rossman kids end up playing hookey from school. (Don't worry! They take their homework with them!) Anyway, this post is mostly for my husband who wouldn't be caught dead in Disneyland. He needs to know all the important life skills the kids are learning while they're here, and that we're not ignoring their education during their week off. We learned about...
Organization
Punctuality
Orienteering
Arts and Crafts
Social Studies
Literature
Nutrition
Hospitality
Constitutional Rights
Geology
Rules of the Road
Fundamentals of Industry
Weights and Measures
Seafaring
Defense Against The Dark Side
Laws of Gravity
Animal Husbandry
- Economics
- Patience
- Observation
- How to locate the closest margarita cart
great stuff! do you think we could convince work of the educational/health benefits of a ‘retreat’ in costa rica?

Such a fun way to show off your trip! I’m going to share with my Homeschooling friends.
