Catherine Lacey: BoyStory

Tree's up!

Lovely afternoon spent with Callum in the playroom doing "homework". Having attended a non educational preschool for the last two years, it's not something that we've focused on too much. Quite the opposite with Reuben whose early love of academics and inability to run around made it so much more natural. With Callum, he'd rather be running around in the dirt than reading and writing. I worry at times, but his school has been enriching in so many other areas, in building his confidence, in making friends, in sensory exploration and being outside for so much of the time, tending to the school's pets or vegetable patch. These are gifts.
