Free Range Learning by Laura Grace Weldon

“Free Range Learning: How Homeschooling Changes Everything” by Laura Grace Weldon is a homeschooling guide that emphasizes interest-led projects, community connections, and peaceful family rhythms over rigid schedules and heavy curricula. Weldon combines research on learning with stories from many families to show how real-world activities—gardening, volunteering, tinkering, conversations—can provide rich education. The book includes subject-specific idea lists and suggestions for weaving learning into daily life. Parents use Free Range Learning for inspiration and reassurance when stepping away from schoolish expectations and toward a more organic, child-centered approach.
