Are you, or anyone you know, parenting teens and older children leaving home? This is a stage of life for which there is no "What to Expect." So I have just begun a blog, The Longest Days, The Shortest Years, http://lettingourkidsgo.blogspot.com/, to open discussion about this stage of the game. Come and share your experiences! http://lettingourkidsgo.blogspot.com/

I'm working on something that I think all  Of your families can enjoy. I am aware that a lot of you are looking for things you can do with your children. I am also aware that the schools cannot do as much as we had hoped they could. With this in mind I have started a website that you can use with your children or would you.  I am creating a course in the history of art around the world which is divided into micro lessons.  When you go to the site will notice that each lesson is question based. Pick anything that interests go through it either on your own or with your children. After a micro less than it was everybody should do something with that information. You can make a storybook, start your own sketchbook, or paint a painting. You can find this at ahaafoundation.org

I would really like to hear from you after you've looked at the site and I'd like to know if find it useful, interesting, boring, and it is interesting to think a teacher and her children's school might use it? I hope you have fun.
