August Blog carnival: Learn nothing, today?

[Meredith]

It was no surprise to me that unschoolers are terrible at not-learning, even for a day. By breakfast time on July 24th accounts were pouring in of unschoolers' chronic inability to take time off from relentless joyfulness and an unending swirl of connections.
Despite that, Laura S, Ren and Bonnie managed to blog about Learn Nothing Day:

Faith rounds us out with an older post about Adventure Day - a day her kids created in fine, unschooling style, one a day like any other, with no intention of learning anything, much less nothing:

Way to go, unschoolers!

Thanks, Sandra, I can't figure out why mine never lights up when I post it.
