Would be beneficial to me? To be honest, I'm skeptical of homeschooling as it is, but that's got a bit to do with my profession, granted. But I suppose further information would be useful all the same. I love the song too. The kids listened to it today and I'm pretty sure it affected most of them. Especially after hearing about Lone Pine and the Nek just before. They left muttering to themselves about what a waste it all was, which I suppose is the right way to reflect on it all. Hopefully a few of them talk their parents into getting along to the local parade. Never heard of it. Would be beneficial to me?

I have four children and they each know the words - it's one of those travelling songs we sing while driving boring roads. Do you know about the Carnival of Home schooling? Many of your posts would be helpful to home schoolers who are looking for curricula or unit ideas. I LOVE this song Mr V.
