Sharing of skills and equipment through C:HOICE
Without the facilities and funding of a school, homeschooling families
pay for their own supplies and services. A practical kind of support for
each other, is the sharing of skills and equipment.
Is there something you need? Do you have something to offer?
You can make exchanges through the playgroup, support group, members'
meetings, or you can post
your requests and offers here.
