Days in Spring

Spring is a blessing. When the walls just begin to seem close, the sun warms and smiles, and the adventures and treasures the outdoors hold, call to the kids and the land becomes their playground and classroom. I think about these Charlotte Mason thoughts, and still know they are gaining while we wander.

“...my object is to show that the chief function of the child--his business in the world during the first six or seven years of his life--is to find out all he can, about whatever comes under his notice, by means of his five senses...”
― Charlotte Mason


















“Let children alone... the education of habit is successful in so far as it enables the mother to let her children alone, not teasing them with perpetual commands and directions - a running fire of Do and Don’t ; but letting them go their own way and grow, having first secured that they will go the right way and grow to fruitful purpose.”
― Charlotte Mason
