[quote=Anonymous]I am going to be realistic about my expectations, but I'm also going to try to keep a schedule that is similar to a school schedule. So, set things for certain times during the day, obviously differentiating activities for my kids, who are 2 and 6.5. I don't know yet what that schedule will look like. I'm a teacher so I do have the privilege of being able to devote all of my time to being with them without needing to telework (my wife will be doing that). I plan on reading time, arts/crafts time, fun math and science stuff, and really a lot of time outdoors. We have a large yard and it could stand some substantial cleanup. We have garden beds to prepare, leaves to rake, sticks to clean up. We will probably do some scooter riding and walking around the neighborhood. Older DS will have some sort of take home work from school - we'll find time for that too. We have playroom full of toys, we have a ton of art supplies. I'm also not going to fool myself - there will be plenty of screen time too. [/quote]
