to reawaken the wild spirit: why we unschool

My kids go barefoot often. They're not afraid of ants, or stickers, or (gasp) even chicken poop.

They know how to walk softly and mindfully, so much more in touch with the soles of their feet than I was at their age.

My kids are those kids that don't wear jackets if it's 60 degrees out.

They also don't wear sunscreen most days…
