We filed as a private school this year ( an option in CA). I have 2 daughters almost 7 and 5 years old. John Holt, relaxed, unschooling is what we do right now.
I also have a 22 year old in college and a 17 year old in public school ( never homeschooled), and completely support and encourage our decision to homeschool their sisters.
Playing, exploring, growing, planting, observing, learning all the time,
