We just might. I'm off to get situated. Not gonna try to stay online whilst it's on.

In other news, we were sitting at the dinner table. Jr. passed the vegetables (carrots and celery) to Luke. Luke started counting uno, dos, tres...

He learned that on his day off from school by...watching TV.

The first year our kids homeschooled, they watched a lot of TV. You should have heard the conversations around the dinner table in the evenings. I didn't understand half of what was being discussed about black holes, quarks, all other kinds of science stuff. There is SO much out there on video, or DVD or online, you'd have to work hard NOT to get an education!

When our kids sit down to watch TV, the first channel they turn to is Discovery. They absolutely LOVE "Mythbusters"! It is a fun show, and Clare has the DVR set up to catch every episode, then they'll just spin up the DVR to see which epidode they got! We also like the Science channel for their space and geology shows.
