Long before I had kids, I read a ton of Pagan parenting books (as a part of being involved in SpiralScouts locally). I need to go back and re-read them and see if there's anything good there that I've forgotten.
A lot of the bloggers I read are very mainstream Christian moms - not a bad thing in and of itself, but definitely interesting to see the times and places their faith comes into play, and how they handle it.
One is starting a new homeschooling project - every week they'll have a theme, and use Bible stories and verses to demonstrate the theme in family life, school life, their reading, etc. They'll also have a prayer journal - who they prayed for and what happened. And I find myself thinking, "look, it's a baby Book of Shadows!" I could totally see doing this with Acorn when he's bigger - a theme, correspondences to go with the theme, a myth or two, etc....no need for it to be big drama, just something else to do, you know?
I'm not sure what else we'll do. Probably set up a toddler-friendly altar with toys for the elements...any other thoughts?
