Owey is approaching two years old, and we are starting to get organized a bit more with a daily and weekly rhythm. "Baby" care tasks still make up most of our daily rhythm - diaper changes, dressing, meals & snacks, nap time and bed time are sprinkled with playtime, simple crafts, and reading lots and lots of books! Play groups, Music Together, errand running, trips to the local farmers market, and playground visits make up our weeks.
I am also starting to think about how best to support Owen's learning and what homeschooling might look like in our family. I'm leaning in the direction of a mixture of Waldorf and Montessori methods and materials... following Owen's lead to determine what specific methods and materials would best suit. We are lucky enough to have a Waldorf influenced outdoor nursery school the next town over from us. As my sister says, "those places were MADE for active curious kiddos like Owen! Can you sign him up today?"
