Day Of The Sniffles

It’s been cold lately, hasn’t it? We’ve had to break out the woollies to wear around the house.
Unfortunately, that sometimes means a bit of a sniffle developing, for one or other of us. I’d had the day planned out today – a bit of language learning, a bit of history, some maths… one sweet bean spent the morning in bed, the other soldiered on for a while, enveloped in a dressing gown with a box of tissues to hand.
By lunch time, we’d decided to change course. We watched some TV shows I’d recorded previously – taking it easy, while still learning. We watched one episode of “Megacities”, about large cities (in this case London), their infrastructure and what goes on behind the scenes. The next show was Tony Robinson wandering around Cornwall, talking about history (“Walking Through History”).

I love the flexibility of homeschooling – even when we were wilting in place, we could still make ourselves comfortable and do some learning!
Even so – here’s to a sniffle-free tomorrow 🙂
