all me crazy or whatever you want except for boring. Home schooling is not about sitting at a desk pushing worksheets. It is about taking every opportunity to mold your child's heart and character in a positive manner. My boys love playing board games of all sorts. They are very competitive and at times have a hard losing. I started a board game club, so they would have an opportunity to play board games with their fellow home school mates and get practice losing gracefully. During club meetings the winner get awarded along with the all members who exemplified good sportsmanship.
On secondary note, the kids are learning how to play some great games. Thus far, we played Blokus, Connect Four, Checkers, Ants in the Pants and Rumis. Each week we play two or three games, have snacks and some outside time. I tried to pick games easy to learn, but hard to master.
