Laura Weldon has been a long-time columnist for Home Education Magazine, editing our popular Questions and Answers section in every issue.
Now Laura has drawn on her own experiences in homeschooling, plus the wisdom of over 100 families from around the world, for a book which brings the endless joys and wonders of homeschooling to light for her readers, and her book has a wonderfully descriptive title: Free Range Learning: How Homeschooling Changes Everything.
Free Range Learning smoothly blends the lessons of ancient knowledge into today’s cutting-edge research in childhood learning, methods of education, and other relevant disciplines, advocating for a natural approach to learning and sharing how many families have made free range learning a part of their daily lives.
“Children love to learn – and they’re good at it. That’s not a new idea, but it’s a critically important concept which has been stifled and twisted and denied for far too long. Thankfully, it’s also a frequent thread and the binding glue of Laura Weldon’s wonderfully affirming book, Free Range Learning. Through homeschooling her children and working as an effective homeschool advocate for many years, Laura Weldon developed an understanding of, and an appreciation for, an elementary wisdom which our society forgot somewhere along the way: Children can be trusted to learn. In this book, she joyfully shares that wisdom.” ~Helen Hegener, publisher, Home Education Magazine
