Hi,
I don’t home school but we’re in Spain and schools finish at 2pm so my son is often home when I’m working. My ‘office’ if you can call it that, is situated between the kitchen and the lounge (nice and quiet, not!) so my son is often looking over my shoulder. It’s made him very interested in the internet so I got him his own domain name and showed him how to upload a website. He’s only 8 but is picking it up. Yesterday he saw a macro button in a spreadsheet so now I have to teach him that too! Fun, fun!
Cheers, Chloe
we home educate and run our own business …and not surprisingly, none of my kids have yet expressed a desire to go work in an office 9-5 for someone else… a loss to corporate uk, which is probably why the government would like to interfere in home education right now.
