Jifundisha

I wanted a name for my blog that meant something...
I thought of things having to do with being a woman, with female empowerment, but nothing seemed right.
Then I thought about my son, he is the most important thing to me, and since we are unschoolers, something that has to do with learning seemed most appropriate. So...

Jifundisha!

It is a Swahili (Kiswahili) word meaning "to learn on one's own." How perfect! I mean really, all learning takes place "on one's own." Sure, I can help my son by providing opportunities, taking him cool places, "strewing" things in his path, but ultimately it is HE who does the actual learning! So Jifundisha it is.
