With more kids at home now . . . here is a book for parents, family members and friends who want to maximize this time for a deeper learning experience for their children and themselves.

Free Range Learning will encourage and excite those who want their children to reap important benefits from this period of sheltering in place, learning at home. This is a book for anyone simply wanting some fresh ideas at this time, or those who wonder if a commitment to ongoing homeschooling might actually result in longer term benefits! The material in this book is backed by scientific and educational studies, along with the testimonies of scores of parents and kids from around the world. The work here is applicable for young people from pre-school through high school.

Studies indicate that adults who were homeschooled are:
* More likely to vote, volunteer and be involved in their communities than graduates of conventional schools.
* Read more books than average.
* More likely to have taken college level courses than the population as a whole.
* Tend to be independent and self-reliant.

Children are naturally free range learners. They build knowledge and skills naturally, within the full spectrum of their daily lives, while observing, exploring and pursuing their interests. This book guides any parent or educator in assisting that process.
