#66: Reclaiming Education and Repairing Our Broken "School" System


Listen Later

The two of us philosophize about the distinctions between education versus learning and why even the most prestigious schools are failing today's children.

As moms on the homeschooling track, we reveal how we are reclaiming the lost art of lifelong learning and why we are not subscribing to the school system's broken idea of "education" i.e. memorization, regurgitation and rigid metrics. 

We relish in the endless opportunities to shape our children's worldview and share which values are most important for us to cultivate in our children as they transition into older toddlerhood and ultimately young childhood.

Takeaways from our discussion:

  • Nurturing a child's interests can cultivate a lifelong love of learning.
  • Homeschooling doesn't have to be rigid; it can be play-based.
  • Values instilled at home shape a child's worldview.
  • Community plays a vital role in a child's developing group dynamics skills.
  • Food choices impact a child's health and awareness.
  • Creative play is essential for learning and development.
  • Observation and awe are key in developing mindfulness.
  • Breaking free from traditional education can empower children.
  • Language development is fostered through real-world communication.
  • Patience and presence are crucial in nurturing a child's growth.
