They are very active and curious little guys, and any help on this home school journey would be greatly appreciated.

In these last two years I've learned so much about my son's learning style, my teaching abilities and how to balance his learning with taking care of our other 2 toddlers (a 3 year old boy and 2 year old girl). Apparently some of what I've been doing is "strewing". My hands-on boy loves learning organically and I love supporting him in his quests. Winning this book would be a wonderful addition to our strewing behavior. I would really love to learn more about it! Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06680303272026779164noreply@blogger.com
