Home Education New to Home Education.....Home Education Myths...More of Everything, Educational Tools, Books.... More of Everything, Educational Tools, Books, etc. is Better The fact is that too much tends to confusion which contributes to burnout. Furthermore, education does not occur through osmosis. Surrounding children with volumes of books, educational toys, and numerous other supposedly educational gadgets does not necessarily create a good educational environment. Children leam best when they are in familiar surroundings and working comfortably in an unpressured atmosphere. Parents also do better teaching in an uncluttered, unpressured home. There is neither cause nor reason to clutter or confuse the education process. 1 further believe that one of the reasons for our inability to pay attention or concentrate for very long is because we are too often interrupted, being surrounded by too much flash and color. Radio and television noise often fills our ears. Cars, airplanes and various other vehicles are endlessly racing by. Even being surrounded by a crowd of people can be disrupting. People, noise, and clutter often distracts from study.
