Developing Passions

One of the pluses of homeschooling is my kids have had time to develop their passions. Passions like seasons come and go with age. It's as if they grow into them and grow out of them. Some passions stay longer then others. Currently, Superstar has a passion for baking. He bakes us up some yummy treat at least once a week. Today's yummy treat: peanut butter blossom cookies.

I know if he was in school he could developed some passions as well, but with homeschooling there is clearly MORE TIME for cooking, baking, or whatever is their passion.  There is more time because schooling does not take 6 plus hours a day with a couple more for busing/traveling to school.  My kids on a good day, when they are focused and ready to work can be done with their book work in about 3-4 hours. That gives them AT LEAST good 2-3 hours more a day to work on their passions and hobbies then their non-homeschooling peers.   The link below is for the current cook book my son is using for his yummy treats.
