I love the Eyre family! Linda & Richard Eyre are the creators of Joy School and it's been around for a long time. I have friends who remember being in Joy School themselves. I've always wanted to do this with my kids and it just amazes me that it's already that time! (If you want more information about setting up your own Joy School group, go here.) I got together a group of friends to do it with me. There are seven moms and seven kids in our group: four boys and three girls. One boy was 4 years old, and one was 2 (he just barely turned 3) and all the rest were 3 years old. We started it the end of January and next week will be our last week. Each mom has rotated weeks, teaching twice a week for 2 1/2 hours each day. All the lesson plans, stories and music are all part of the curriculum that we purchased. The units we've done this "semester" were on the following:
- Obedience & Decisions
- Interest & Curiosity
- Spontaneous Delight
- Trust & Confidence
- Individual Confidence & Uniqueness
- Imagination & Creativity
- Family Security, Identity & Pride

Thank you so much for sharing this. I've checked out the site that you linked to and would really like to join. I noticed that you can refer people and get a credit, so I wanted to make sure that you get a credit when I join. I think it said I will need to enter your user name when I sign up, so if you want me to do that, let me know. :) Now I just have to find some people to do joy school with me.
