Kayak

My son LOVES fishing so much but as a younger teen with little income, he was forced to mostly pond fish unless his dad was available to take the boat out.  This all changed with he met the nephew of a friend who competitively bass fishes out of a kayak.  After picking this young man's brain for a couple hours, my son was in research mode.  He found a kayak that would work to see how he liked it, then sold that kayak and his dirt bike to get a better one for fishing.  So much self education has happened from this one event.  Budgeting, product research, shopping for deals, electronics (using, installing, and interpreting data), seasonal changes in fishing and environments, hooking up the trailer to my car, wiring lights for trailer, navigating to destinations, reading and deciphering rules and regulations... The list could go on and on.  I am so thankful that this boy who has always been obsessed with fish, can guide himself down his path finding mentors along the way.

Just something to ponder, notice, and observe as you take the journey with your family on this unschooling path.
