My sister has been trying to tell me how cool Latter-Day Learning is and I finally listened. The other great thing about this curriculum is that a bunch of local LDS friends get together twice a week to help our kids learn together. I decided to try it out and the kids thought it was a great fit.
Our first time joining was for a field trip to the planetarium (Jacob was so thrilled). These are not all of the kids but some of them. All the moms take turns teaching, and each of us teach a specific topic. Next year I will be teaching science to the older kids. We try and split them the best we can according to their developmental stages. The great thing too is that two of the families live two doors down from each other and so one house is used for the younger and the other house is used for the older. It really is set up the perfect way. There are about seven families that come, with more coming next year.
We have been attending for a few weeks now and really enjoy seeing friends and learning more not only about history, science, literature, and geography but about the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Sounds like a great plan!
