Independent "Study"
Between
standardized test prep and after-school activities, school-age kids often have little time to explore their interests. Help your children pick an area they want to explore-whether its turtles from the Galapagos islands, life in
France, or learning
how to play guitar. Then find books, documentaries, websites, brochures, and help them learn whatever they can on the subject. They can make their own travel brochures, music videos, or perhaps experiment with some new artistic techniques (abstract and
pointillist styles are easy and fun for kids to attempt). They will love displaying or uploading their "projects" for their friends and family to see. Chances are, you’ll learn a lot too.
These are absolutely fantastic!
