Homeschooling with Grandma

When beginning homeschooling, I always recommend having at least one supportive set of grandparents.  I just wish ours lived closer.  One of the wonderful things about Daniel's mom is that, every time she visits, she doesn't just bring gifts... she brings educational gifts.  She can be counted on to bring new books, puzzles, math games, and even hand made journals that practically read like a geography book documenting travels that she and Grandpa Wayne have been on.  Sometimes, I think just talking to their grandparents is an educational experience for my kids.  They've been all over the world and lived such amazing lives.
