Here's what Josh and I are doing for our own kids...

1/ Forest school 3-4 hrs/day

Wander in the woods or beach. 10-15 kids w/ a teacher or two. Socialize and observe ecosystems. Foster joie de vivre. Avoid spirit-crushing modern school environment.

6. Why is Twitter so useful?

It doesn't matter where you live. You can build an audience solely based on the quality of your thinking. It's a way to meet industry insiders without going to conferences. If Facebook is for people in your past, Twitter is for people in your future.
