FLICT

We are now part of yet one more homeschooling group. This is good, though, because FLICT is a very good fit for us. It is the next in a lineage of groups of independent minded, yet not isolated, homeschoolers in our area.

WIHS, YEA, HANCK, WHEF, and now FLICT.

Free Learning Wichita is FLICT's full name. (ICT is Wichita's airport abbreviation and a well known local shorthand for our city.)

We have 10 families in the Facebook group. I think 7 of them came to our first group event. We had Wii games, Lego, Zometool, chalk drawing, Minecraft, some other computer games, In a Pickle, chess, some other board/character games, Magic the Gathering, toddler-sized blocks and puzzles, lunch, babies nursing, moms chatting, and probably several other activities that I missed seeing. All in just over 2 hours! The church building was left as clean and tidy as we found it, and kids and adults want to do it again.

A ROUSING SUCCESS!
