I like this list so much I'll just print the whole thing - 11 Models that are Better for Childhood Learning than Schools':
- Summer Camps: Be engaged outdoors, not coerced indoors
- Libraries/YMCA: Pick what interests you today
- Internships/Volunteering: Spend time with smarter people and do meaningful work
- Family Trips: Go on journeys with the people who matter most
- Pick-up Sports: Experience existential play and find balance
- Organized Sports Leagues: Raise your own game through competition
- Meaningful Jobs: Understand what work is
- Self Study: To explore a passion
- Tutor with small class or individual/ Music class: Learn at the right pace
- Community theater: A common goal for a disparate group
- Book clubs/ discussion groups: Learn to be as well as learn to know
