| Spring is here! Time to listen to a playlist and write outside. |
Do you listen to music while you create, or perhaps during your quiet homeschool hours?
When I was homeschooling, we had a monthly composer study. It was the one thing we always did "Charlotte Mason" style—studying the lives of artists and composers with a sense of wonder. We’d play their works in the background during lunch, a beautiful soundtrack for our daily lives.
More recently, our family has found a new rhythm at dinner. We each have a Pandora playlist that blends into a slightly chaotic mix. I love the Big Band 40s; my husband leans toward Django Reinhardt; my oldest prefers classical; and my youngest is all about Movie Soundtracks. When friends come to visit, we add their favorites to the mix, creating a tapestry of sound that belongs to everyone.
