“A child educated only at school is an uneducated child.” – George Santayana… As moms, we all want what’s best for our kids. We put aside so many of our own needs and wants, to make sure they have the very best. We invest in their future financially – things like life insurance, savings accounts, college plans – but it’s also super important to be investing in their future lives in a different way too… The adventures you take them on, the books you encourage them to read, the projects you complete together – those activities will have a huge impact on what type of person that they grow up to be.

“Education’s purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one.” – Malcolm S. Forbes
I really don’t like infographics, but I think this is definitely hits all points in how to educate your child. Being the friend of a teacher who sees a lot of kids enter school without knowing how to read, even up to first grade, I know second hand the work teachers put in to get kids up to the grade level they should be at. Reading and writing should start in the home first before you send them off to school.
