I wonder if you can be involved with social education groups if your child is not yet "school-aged". I really want to find some homeschool groups here in SE Iowa, but so far nothing. I think it would be good for her to start socializing with such a group even before she begins any kind of formal education.
Any ideas?

Thanks, Mindy1127. I have been seeking info on homeschooling. This website is great. It's a little early yet for my little one to need the curriculum, but I want to be prepared. Good on ya!

Thanks so much for this, vivianwwx! I was just wishing the words inthis book were larger as my daughter loves it, but can't see the words very well. Good on ya!

Good question! I would really like to read a response to this question as well.

My daughter is 18 mos. and has barely been ill. No ear infection, 2 colds. Thats it. we chose not to vaccinate, despite our doctors urging. every time we go to a check up he is dismayed by our steadfastness and her heartiness.
We were bullied into the Hep B at the hospital when she was only minutes old. after we did the research and found out how hep B is contracted, we were furious. I don't think I need to worry about a newborn contracting sexually transmitted diseases. They made it sound like she could easily pick it up anywhere.
After we did the research we decided against vaccinatons. Looking  back,I know we made the right decision. At the time it was very difficult. many a sleepless night was spent worrying. I think my daughters clean bill of health is due to NOT vaccinating.
Do the research, go with your gut, and be strong.

 Hi, ya'll
I'm the mother of a very bright and free spirited 18 mo. old girl, Emma.   I am trying to learn all I can to be the best Momma and teacher possible. Mainly, i just want Emma to be Emma, and to be happy.  
Emma resents too much scheduling, sooo....... we just play it by ear, and I try to take a lot of cues from her. I tried Doman Curriculum, but it caused a lot of tension.  Emma will do what Emma does in her own time and on her schedule. Since accepting this I have been much more relaxed and happy.   I think that is one of the key factors in Emma's own happiness. " If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy."   

Has anyone got a brachiation ladder for sale? I'm not very handy and haven't a lot of time for shopping and constructing. Also, is there a kit for such?   Please post or email me @ [email protected]  Sincerely, Erin Henas
