Thanks!  It was nice to be able to post where there isn't much traffic just to see how it works.  I'll check out other topics soon!

Hi! I just signed up today.  I'm looking forward to learning from other's experiences.  We have four kids 6 and under and live in Switzerland.  I'm forming my philosophy of homeschooling and currently plan to use a mix of child-directed learning (Project-Based homeschooling style or unschooling) and adult-led education with high standards (that's where classical education fits - also to catch me up!), with the idea that the adult-led part is kept short and sweet but consistant over time (maybe Charlotte Mason style?), and with an overall focus on character growth.  I have one kid who wants to learn everything himself and one who loves adult-led activities.  I'm looking forward to the adventure!  Any tips of where to start on the forum are appreciated!
