You can deschool and hit the refresh button at any time! Here's the GSHE video on deschooling and ideas to recharge your children's learning.
- Take a day off the academics to pursue something else you enjoy.
- Meet up with friends for an outing at a favorite museum or plan a field trip together.
- Bake cookies or a special meal with the kids.
- Visit your local library to take out a new book or participate in one of their many events.
- Read a book with the kids; they're never too old for read-alouds.
- Play board games together.
- Build an indoor fort with blankets.
- Organize a nerf battle, hiking excursion, or nature scavenger hunt.
- Sow seeds for your garden - here are easy ones to grow in a cup and more suggestions.
- Visit a game shop, video arcade, climbing wall, or trampoline park.
- Plan a service project to help people in your community -- senior centers, food pantries, animal shelters, and other orgs are always looking for assistance.
If you want to expand the opportunity, make a Facebook event in our main group that has nearly 7,000 members as a way to meet people and make new friends!
