Unschooling with the PSP - God of War

Well, we've moved on to another game - the God of War. Got to meet lots of Minatours, a couple of Medusas, many Immortals, and that lady Aphrodite seem rather nice too.

In conjuction with PSP learning, we've been reading stories from The Illiad by Homer. Son thought it was rather funny that this great philosopher had the same name as the great Homer Simpson! LOL! And how Argos was actually not just the name of a catalouge shop but the name of the land where Diomedes of the Loud War Cry hailed from.

The God of War game might be bloody and gory, but nevertheles a very intersting way to be immersed into a Greek mythology environment. Lots of logical challeges like that gets the brain juice going too.
