Creative Homeschooling is...Thinking Out-of-the-Box!

Sep. 18, 2007

Going to the Studio with Dad!

One of the things I love most about homeschooling is the freedom if provides children to go on "mini-learning adventures" as they arise. My husband, an Executive Chef, does a cooking segment about once a month for a local Morning show on ABC. This  month, he decided to take our eldest son (13) with him....how fun is that?!?! He got up at 2:30 a.m. to be at the studio by 4:00, help with cooking the food to have ready to go on air by 5:00! Of course the studio people asked the old stand-by question  "why aren't you in school?" but they also thought it was neat he came and helped his dad out. If he were in school he would have missed this opportunity and so many others that come up.

Dad and son- Prepping the food before going on air.

My husband is on the right, the man on the left is his assistant.

Eating the food on the air...actually I think it's commercial break but they do eat whatever he makes on the air and talk about it.

They did a few shots of cooking the food outside as well.

I am with you. My son has also gotten some good opportunities to do things with DAd he couldn't have otherwise. Not so exciting as the event your son just had, but still to be part of Dad's world which is so important to becoming a man.

That is so neat! We went on a field trip to the local news station last year, and the anchorman picked my son to sit behind the desk and do a mock segment, complete with papers and all. It was so much fun for him. :)

You're so right, he would have missed out in P.S. and the best part is that his dad is becoming his hero, not someone/thing else.
GOd bless,

I love the opportunities given to homeschoolers!
I think it is so funny when someone says,
"How will they learn to live in the real world?"
Meanwhile, they are living in the real world!
