RV Living: Part 1

Well I will talk a little about RV living and homeschooling while you travel. 

It all started when Daddy Wolf came home and said he was going to travel for work.  I said not without us.  So, we went shopping for a RV that would hold 4 of us and two dogs. 

We had so much fun looking and picking out one that would work. That's the beginning of homeschooling. The girls had to help us with math and numbers. To see which RV was worth the money.  Then add taxes and all the stuff to it to see if it would work for us.  We finally found the right one and off we went.  

Our first state was the south away from the cold winters in the north.  While we were traveling to different states we need to be. We made school on the road fun.  They learned how to read a map.  How long it would take us to get from A to B?   How many miles it was from A to B?  Then they learn how to figure out gas mileage, to how far we could go on a full tank of gas and when we should start looking for a place to get more gas.


We also stopped at a lot of the wonderful places a long the way to site see. I will tell you people at these places were wonderful. Once they found out we homeschool they took both Wolf Daughters under there wings and really showed them the places. In the back of many places, up and close.  What a wonderful time they had and sure learned a lot while having fun.  (Shhh, don't tell them that they were learning they thought it was fun).  

Isn't it fun to learn sometime and having so much fun you don't know you are learning and doing school.   That's the joy of homeschooling.  Take your child by the hand and showing them things they wouldn't see if they were in a public school. 


Schooling in the RV wasn't hard it was fun. We always make school fun to some degree. Some things you have to learn are just hard to make fun to do. But, you know its something you have to do and once you do it, its not bad. 

We had a special place we keep all our homeschool books and other reading books. We always made room in the RV for books. 

Wolf Daughters loved books and loved learning through them.   They both love to read, so that made teaching them a lot easier.
