Outdoor Learning in Norway

This video (which I cannot embed, so you'll have to follow the link) is about 21 minutes long, and discusses so much of what we value in our unschooling experience. Just sit back and enjoy the whole thing, and see how they follow their learning in sometimes unexpected but always valuable ways. So beautiful.

Our ideal is something similar to what these schools in Norway seem to be doing, but with less government-involvement, and hopefully freedom from routinized testing, etc. With our family's style of wilderness unschooling, we're 1/2 way there. Hopefully the (f)Unschool is the first step towards the next part: finding peers to join us on this fabulous journey!

Here's the video -- do commit to the whole thing; it's worth it!
