Home education: Subjects to teach
Art
Your child might feel a bit self-conscious about their drawing skills, but the more they do it, the better the results and the greater the confidence. And when you're educating at home, your child's first few tries at art don't need to be shown to everyone.
Drawing and painting are also great ways to organise thoughts or fix memories or explain things to other people. And a pencil and some drawing paper are not very expensive.
