We call it independent learning, others letting them do "whatever they bloomin' want", and they don't mean that in a good way! But in our little home educating world it seems to be working! We've taken the pressure off of them and ourselves a bit recently and it hasn't seemed to have stopped anyone from actually learning stuff! Inspired by art group they have been drawing zen doodles all week taking the original idea further and further.
Music practice is happening all times of the day without nagging or cajoling. They are reading for pleasure and to research. And while they do still try and watch all sorts of things on the internet! They really are using it for good.
Hmmm... art group.... tell me more :-)
