Welcome! I'd like this to be an interactive community of homeschoolers where we can share ideas, lesson plans, themes, discuss the current situation of Education in our country, the attitude towards homeschooling. More than that though, I would like it to be a fun interactive forum where we can place a direct link to FREE downloadable arts, crafts, activity plans, activity workbooks, worksheets, thematic units, seasonal units, hundreds of differents projects, languages, links, resources, hundreds of colouring and activity workbooks for our little ones, where I can supply FREE educational software and games teaching our children the alphabet, numbers, reading, writing... Most of all a place where they can have fun, we can exchange ideas and set up a support group, even by email. All the downloads are completely free, and I have licensed them where necessary, in fact the whole site is free. I would just love some South African input and I'm sure if you paid a visit to http://www.staidenshomeschool.com you'd see that the site is updated daily with as much information as 24 hours will allow me to upload. I also have a focus on teenagers, family law and health. There are a lot of single parents out there that could do with the benefits of knowing the legalities of homeschooling, and I have placed them all there on the site. Do join our group. Let's become a family and share our resources. Remember there are a lot of people in our country that do not have access to or cannot find or purchase what we can offer them.... I would also welcome suggestions and ideas, and I'll get the creative half of my website Monique to develop those goodies... I would love to meet you and say welcome... Regards Donnette
