Homeschool

Welcome to our homeschool room! This is the very beginning of our homeschool journey and this is our starting place. My children are still fairly young and my eldest is in his first year of primary education. We are creating our own homeschool approach using the Montessori approach along with some odds and ends that I have adopted along the way. This room changes and grows with my children, it has just recently become one shared space as my youngest can now work alongside her big brother safely. Previously they has separate “Yes spaces” (more on that later). Now that they can work in the same room I am seeing a big change in the way our homeschool days flow. The children are less concerned with what others are doing, and are sinking more deeply into their own play.

Great Expectations

Great Expectations

When my husband and I first seriously started discussing starting a family I immeditately started forming expectations and imagining what my child would be like. We had already selected a name before we even found out that I was indeed expecting. We had already spent...

All Weather Play

"There is no such thing as bad weather". This is a statement I find all over different parenting and education sites and blogs. We know for a fact that the more time outdoors children have, the better. Outdoor spaces help children learn to balance and coordinate their...
