Kids who are home-schooled sometimes get to interact more with children of different ages than those in public and private schools because they are not separated into conventional grades. There are often activities organized for them by home-schooling groups.
Learning Materials

Home-schooled kids often get to learn by using computers, watching videos and reading a range of books. In conventional schools, kids use textbooks in most classes.
