Hi Julie,
The Niles and Berrien Springs Partnerships are a real blessing for area homeschoolers. When your kids get to high school age they can get dual enrollment college classes paid for through the Partnerships too. The first two years of college can be done for free that way.
Silver beach in St. Joe is a favorite spot for our family. Exploring the art galleries in Saugatuck is fun too. The plays at the Mendel Center at Lake Michigan College in Benton Harbor are high quality. They have a series for kids each year that we always enjoyed.
My kids are grown now, but we homeschooled for 20 years. There's lots to do in this area. It's the fruit belt....pick blueberries, raspberries, apples, peaches, etc. and make jam, freeze for smoothies, and of course, eat a ton while picking. The Chicago museums are a great day trip. In winter there is snow boarding and skiing to learn.
I believe LMC is adding a Fab Lab to it's Benton Harbor campus too. I don't know when it will open, but when it does, classes there will be great for all age kids.
