We've been planning to homeschool since before DS was born. Although he's not yet five, and thus not "officially" homeschooling, he's ready and interested! We're in a number of support groups, including one that's connected to an umbrella group that we're considering for next year. DS will be able to participate in various homeschooling activities and field trips this year to a much larger extent than in previous years.
We're doing the "child-led learning" thing - unschooling, really, but not radically so. DS has specifically asked to learn how to read and to learn Spanish, so we've been focusing on those. Our family is also very big on science, so we do a lot of science-oriented activities. And DS is really into math now, too. Really, he's pretty interested in everything he can find to be interested in!
