I don't know about your family, but in my family women shovel snow, put together swimming pool motors, change tires, etc. etc. etc. šŸ˜‡

As for schools, I read about the way Marie Curie educated her daughters. She dreaded sending them to traditional school so she got together with other scholars. These formed a cooperative, where the kids would travel to the scholars and be schooled in their specialties.

Also, Rabindranath Tagore founded a school very similar to what you describe:

Instead, they actively create knowledge through a process of trial and error, forming conjectures (hypotheses) and testing them against reality. Learning happens when children use their creativity to develop new ways of thinking, not just when they follow instructions or imitate others. Thus, I want my kids to engage in meaningful, self-driven exploration (by playing, reading, being curious).

It's a really important decision. Good luck!!
