Our culture has become saturated in all forms of rebellion against God, not the least of which is the LGBT movement. No matter how you raise your children, they will be exposed. Children’s toys, cookies, candy, cereal, clothing lines, and cartoons have all become mouthpieces for sexual perversion. You would literally have to live in a bubble to keep your children from it, especially in June.

We settle in for a comfortable 1 1/2 to 2 hours of reading to begin our school day. (See my previous post.) Sometimes it’s at 9:00, sometimes it’s as late as 11:00. Snacks are allowed (see the iced coffees?) because food makes kids happy. And I let them do a variety of quiet activities while I read. On this day, they chose mazes and intricate coloring.

Summer learning.
