You might be a homeschooling family if...
- ...you stop everything to check out a giant mosquito caught in a spider web being wrapped up like a mummy!!!
- We moved to a new area and discovered mice in the garage - we of course used the internet to find out what type of mice were popular at the reservoir which is behind us - this lead to curiosity on the raptors which were hunting the 2 common mice species - we then rented the new Disney’s Ratatouille movie and were just as interested at the end of the movie when they gave a short film on what rats enjoy eating, where they like to hide, etc - we actually rewound that part and were taking notes. (laughing) So, we learned of two new types of mice which we had never heard of before. Now, we are going to learn about the raptors at the reservoir.
~Kathy in Colorado - ...there's a collection jar on your kitchen table and it has a lady bug in it!
- ...you read in this thread that someone has a scale model of the solar system in their house, and immediately start wondering if that's really possible.
If the Earth is a pinhead, then the Sun's a tennis ball 10 yards away; if the Earth's a golfball, the Sun's an SUV down the block; that sort of thing! - ...your kids are mad at you for requesting books on their library card because the library only lets you request 10 things at a time.
...your families' book allowance is spent on overdue fines and missing book fees at the local library
...you not only have a box at the library, but it is full at least 2x a week.
...your librarian knows you and your whole family by name
...your librarian ask you for suggestions to buy for the library
