Learning in Freedom

Welcome to Learning in Freedom, a blog all about the learning adventures (and mishaps) of the Allen family. My four children are unschooled, following their interests and passions every day and living the lives of their choosing. The purpose of this blog is to share our every day lives (and my not-so-humble opinons) with anyone interested in stopping by. We hope this will give a glimpse of how natural learning unfolds from day to day......

Wallermelons


This is the boy who asked for a "wallermelon" plant.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.:)

And what a lovely wallermelon it is! Jalen, rightfully so, looks very proud of it too! I wish I could grow wallermelons.

How cool! My boy Joseph asked to grow a Watermelon plant too, so we're trying, along with some yellow boy tomaotoes. He just can't wait to see yellow tomatoes. We could use some good growing vibes over here if you have any! ;)

Ciara was all about those Lemon Boy tomatoes this year! She'd see a ripe one and it was sliced and on bread before I could blink.:)

We'll send lotsa good green-thumb vibes. We had success on a small scale this year, time to try it bigger next season. Starting some cool weather crops, though the tomatoes act like they'll never stop producing. Good bang for your buck!

Jalen was asking what I did with the wallermelon seeds a couple nights ago because "I want to grow more wallermelons from those seeds Mom"
Can't get enough of his fruit. It's been a lot of fun watching him through this whole adventure.
