I’m enjoying it. I love books that include high amounts of research and studies explained in ways a non-academic can understand... and this book hits that mark for sure. There are bits that feel extreme, even for my relaxed-unschooly home education philosophy.

Though Peter Grey is an unschooling advocate and there are parts of this book that are directly discussing unschooling I also think it’s a valuable read for those not interested in that specific methodology.
One chapter I found especially interesting:
- benefits of mixed age play! So fascinating how the interactions benefit both the older and younger kids. ie observation and leadership
