Poetic Education and Boys

This is a subject near and dear to my heart!  Cindy at Dominion Family has a thoughtful post on this.  Here's a quote:

But it is the regular boys, the sports-loving boys, the farmer boys, the active boys who will benefit most from a poetic education: the Spurgeons and the George MacDonalds and the Eric Liddells and the Almanzo Wilders.
I'm trying to spend some time on this Christmas break reflecting and checking my home education course, so I appreciate this food for thought.
