Book excerpt: As more and more parents challenge the assumptions of the school system, their curiosity about unschooling grows, and often one of their burning questions is: What does day-to-day life look like for an unschooling family? Pam Laricchia has been unschooling her three children for over a decade. "Life Through the Lens of Unschooling," like day-to-day life, meanders here and there, covering a wide array of topics. You'll find essays tackling everything from learning to read to visiting relatives, all organized around nine key words that have been woven into the fabric of their unschooling lives: deschooling, learning, days, parenting, relationships, family, lifestyle, unconventional, and perspective. The theme is life; the lens-unschooling. Drawn from her popular blog at livingjoyfully.ca, imagine this book accompanying you, a joyful companion on your unschooling journey, as you dig deeper into your understanding of unschooling and what it might look like day-to-day in your family. If you're interested in learning more about the principles behind learning and living with unschooling, Pam explores them in her books "Free to Learn: Five Ideas for a Joyful Unschooling Life" and "Free to Live: Create a Thriving Unschooling Home."
