Mommy, What Is An Equinox?

March 6, 2006

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

One of the cool things about homeschooling is that you get to revisit your own education. My 7 year old came to me this morning and asked me this question. Still a bit tired and achy from sleep, and trying to get eggs and oatmeal on the stove, I said “Ummm….it has something to do with the relative position of the earth and the sun.”

Pretty good for 7 am eh? I promised him we would look it up later, after breakfast and my green tea kicked in. Then I get to learn all about equinoxes, and probably solstices too. ;)

 Today on Natural Moms Talk Radio I’m talking with a homeschooling Mom who is the author of Life Long Learning. Tune in and listen here.

    Hi Carrie!

    I just wanted to say thank you so much for having me on your radio show. It was a pleasure speaking and learning with you. I just wanted to update your listeners that since the show, I have had numerous requests from parents asking about what it is we do for curriculum, so I thought I would post that I have a new webpage just added to the Life Long Learning Website about what it is we do for curriculum. It can be viewed by going to http://www.lifelonglearning4all.com and clicking on the What About Curriculum page or by going straight to the link at http://www.lifelonglearning4all.com/whataboutcurriculum.html

    Again thank you for having me on the show. I look forward to joining you again another time as well in the future:)

    Infinite Love and Light,
