My three year old DS keeps saying he wants to go to ‘big school’ thanks to nursery teachers and therefore classmates at nursery going on about how great it is. I have recently been introduced to the whole home education world and I love what I have found so far, and while it isn’t set in stone I think it’s really likely it’s what we will end up doing. How can I make him excited for learning at home in case we do decide to follow that path? We go to a local home ed group who go on exciting trips and have weekly meet-ups which he enjoys but I can’t really avoid his nursery friends and teachers influencing the way he sees things. I have nothing against regular school it’s just I really feel he will flourish with home ed and our local area is so lucky to have such a large and active HE community so I don’t think he will be missing out. What did you say to your kids when many of their friends headed off to school?
