[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Supplement by exploring the world, not with workbooks and apps, and encourage reading. Interested in Space? Visit the Smithsonian Air and Soace Museum and plan a trip to Cape Canaveral. Interested in History? Visit Gettysburg and some historic homes. Dinosaurs? Natural History Museum and go fossil hunting (there's a place in MD, am blanking on the name). When you travel, don't just visit the hotel pool, visit cultural sites. We have 1 out of college and 2 in college, all successful/on the road to success and we never did workbooks or allowed apps. In fact, limit technology as much as you can without impinging on their social life as they get older. We never allowed and still never allow phones during a meal, and all phones and computers and all electronic devices were not allowed in bedrooms overnight.[/quote] School also looked different for your kids and a better curriculum with books and textbooks.
