One of the big selling points of homeschooling is that it frees up a lot of time for kids to explore, play, go on outings, or to do just about anything they please.

Some homeschoolers I've known or worked with have said they spend 2-4 hours per day on formal learning, and then they have time to do other activities. Compare this to the 8+ hours a child might spend in a government or private school!

For the homeschoolers on Nostr, do you find the average times above to be accurate? What do you do with your kids outside of formal learning time?

For the non-homeschoolers, what would you do with all of those extra hours every week? Just imagine the possibilities!

We quickly morphed into our own unique brand of unschooling. I don't think we've ever spent 4 hours a day on formal learning. The kids were learning constantly. They would often be working on their own projects at any time of the day - sometimes right up to bedtime, if it was something they were really into.
