When a child is resistant to things like writing and "seat work", what's a conscientious homeschooling mom to do? As one who is unaccustomed to giving up and highly bent toward resolution, I'm on a mission to figure this one out!

One such triumph in our homeschooling week was the discovery of playwriting for handwriting and language. Amazing!
