"'Education is the Science of Relations'; that is, that a child has natural relations with a vast number of things and thoughts: so we train him upon physical exercises, nature lore, handicrafts, science and art, and upon many living books, for we know that our business is not to teach him all about anything, but to help him to make valid as many as may be of––
'Those first-born affinities,
That fit our new existence to existing things.'"

Charlotte Mason, A Philosophy of Education
with a quote from The Prelude by William Wordsworth

Brenda of The Tie That Binds Us
Jimmie of One Child Homeschool Policy
Jimmie's new web site Jimmie's Collage*Kris* (that's me) of Science of Relations (sometimes God puts the hands on lesson right outside your window...)
*Kris* (also me) of At Home Science
Sarah of SmallWorld
Mother Hen of Meanwhile, back at the ranch...
Momma Snail of The Snail's Trail
The Family of Once Upon a Family
Misty of Homeschool Bytes
