There are also many great yahoo groups that correspond with Charlotte Mason and Ambleside Online if you are wanting to know how other women work this educational approach in their own homes I would highly recommend finding these groups on yahoo.

If you go to Ambleside Online and click on the "Introduction to Ambleside Online" you will find several resources and links available.

Also a great way to meet other CM moms and be inspired is to join the Charlotte Mason Blog Carnival!
