[quote=Anonymous]I grew up with plenty of "enrichment," but it looked a lot different than dropping kids off at Kumon. TV was limited (not sure why "unlimited TV" is assumed to be a given). Lots of books, reading and visits to the public library. Outdoor sports and play each afternoon. Board games, puzzles, and "boredom" that led to creative thinking, exploring, and artistic endeavors. Looked up information in the encyclopedia and used the card system at the library to search for information. Read books every evening before going to bed. Curiosity was encouraged and our dinner conversations ranged from the day's events to world news, science, business, politics, family history and funny stories. [/quote]
