Welcome! If you're new around here, I have a whole series of videos for homeschooling beginners! In this video, I share about the Unschooling method.
In this method, parents let their children lead and let them choose what they want to learn. The belief is that children are naturally curious about the world without anyone teaching them how to be, and they will learn so much just by what they choose to learn about.
Parents are there to support their kids in whatever they want to learn about by providing resources or places to visit to learn more.
