011: In Which We Talk About Our Journey to CM and Education is an Atmosphere
This is quite a packed episode as we talk about our why's in homeschooling to try to give context to the things we share and the decisions we have made in our individual journeys leading to our Charlotte Mason story. We also discuss a bit about how we try to educate and equip ourselves, staying informed about different homeschool providers, and our process in choosing books and curriculum.
We end the episode with a gentle reminder that "education is an atmosphere" and how we are part of that atmosphere.

As I read her descriptions of that wide syllabus, I realized that the food needed by my children was knowledge--not a haphazard accumulation of any knowledge that interested them, but a disciplined, well-planned intake of "the enormous field of knowledge to which a child ought to be introduced in right of his human nature.

Will children have gaps in their learning? Yes. There isn't a way to teach our children everything about everything. The public schools can't do it and neither can we, which is why it is so important for parents to pay attention to their kids' curiosities.
-Durenda Wilson, The Unhurried Homeschooler
The question is not, -- how much does the youth know? when he has finished his education -- but how much does he care? and about how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set? and, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?
