The older boys and I were on the Princeton campus this morning to observe one of the regional contests for National History Day. We watched a few of the participants and then walked the grounds which are just gorgeous. The boys were incredibly bored during the program, but it was helpful for all of us to observe should we decide to participate in the future. Sometimes, the kids just have to go along with what I see as being important. As a homeschooler, you have to work extra hard at finding opportunities for your children to compete in. You don’t have the luxury of a school providing these scenarios or encouraging you to participate. We had lunch on Nassau Street before returning home to enjoy the sun!
