I'm in the process of moving the content of this site over to our new blog: http://welearn4fun.wordpress.com
For the moment the content on here will remain the same, but I cannot guarantee that in the future. |

I've recently discovered another tool for fighting internet addiction. It is called Keep Me Out.
To use the free service you enter the URL of a website that you find problematic. The Keep Me Out service creates a different URL which you then bookmark. If you use the Keep Me Out bookmark instead of the usual URL it will not allow you on the site again if you have been there within the last hour.
For example you might have difficulty with visiting Facebook far too often. Keep Me Out creates a link such as this which you then click on which takes you to a page that says "Warning!
You visited facebook.com less than 60 minutes ago!
Why not come back in 55 minutes, 6 seconds?"
Of course, it relies on you using the Keep Me Out bookmark instead of the usual URL, but it can be a useful tool for addicts of particular websites. |

I am suspending my posting on this site indefinitely. For the time being the site will remain as is, with the old content still accessible. At a later date I may rework and relaunch the website or I may abandon it. I don't know. Please enjoy the content while it is available. Thank you for your support. |

Homeschooling is hard work. Although, like all things, it is hard in ways I hadn't anticipated.
I'm sure all non-homeschooling parents can anticipate the dearth of "me time", the constant chatter of questions and injuries and accidents and quarrels. I'm sure that any Mum of school-aged children would miss the few moments that the entire house is clean, before their "schoolies" arrive home. When the children don't leave for the day, there is no such moment.
However, I don't find those things to be the hardest parts of homeschooling. |

A lot has been written about babies, sleep and sleep deprivation. There are books and websites galore dedicated to getting your baby to sleep more. I'm not going to reiterate what has already been said a million times over. Instead, I'm going to add just a few little insights of my own.
