So, homeschooling (at least for Tasha), starts on Monday, Pippa starts on 7th April . I've done loads of research, planned a curriculum (http://allinonehomeschool.com/), got sets of early readers (BOB books, Wow, Biff and Chip) and generally put a lot of thought into it (planning educational outings, groupon deals for art and music classes etc). However it still seems like I've no idea how it will go until I start doing it. It's quite nerve wracking, akin to starting a new job. I'm excited by the challenge and the kids also seem excited by the prospect. I'm guessing there'll be a few homeschooling posts on this blog going forward.
In the spirit of reducing plastic this month I've made a couple of great discoveries. A local (NZ) meat and milk provider, that I've been using for a couple of years on account of them selling milk in glass bottles which they collect and reuse, has started selling their meat in compostable packaging. Their meat also just happens to be mighty tasty and they deliver to your doorstep. A great way to reduce 5 or 6 plastic meat trays and associated cling wrap each week. This company are also great to deal with online https://eketahunacountrymeats.co.nz/
