For me , part of the fun of a field trip is interacting with family , friends and the public. However , if  you are homebound for any reason , this is an alternative. Some of these on-line field trips look really interesting . If you are inside your house watching the snow swirl around and pile up outside , take a trip !

Our goal is to be true to Charlotte Mason's high literary standards. Ambleside Online uses the highest quality books and costs no more than the cost of texts.
