Week 5: Minecraft & Nature explorers 🐝🌿

What we had planned… we didn’t actually do 😄
And honestly, sometimes the best way in home ed is to go child-led.

The children became interested in other things, and by following their curiosity, so much more learning unfolded naturally. We spent time exploring nature, looking at different leaves, watching the deer and cats, and simply learning through real-life experiences together.

Not every session will go to plan, but this one turned into something really lovely 💚

So overwhelmed reading through all the lovely parent reviews for Hummingbird Home Hub 💛
We receive so many beautiful messages and kind words, and I thought I’d share just a few little snippets with you all today to show how much they truly mean to me.

It’s amazing to reflect on what we’ve started together, how far we’ve come, and how this wonderful community continues to grow into something so supportive, nurturing, and special. I feel incredibly grateful to be part of so many families’ home education journeys.

One of the loveliest parts is watching the children grow in confidence, friendships, creativity, and joy — while seeing our community become bigger and even more beautiful every day.

Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts, for every kind review, recommendation, message, and bit of support. It genuinely means the world to us. Wishing you all a lovely weekend ✨🕊️

Week 4 🐝✨

This week we learned all about BEES, and the children were completely engrossed in discovering fascinating facts about them!

We watched a bee documentary together and learned so many amazing things — did you know a queen bee can lay up to 2,000 eggs a day?! 🐝👑

Throughout the session we:
✨ Created bee fact files
✨ Painted little stone bumblebees with acrylic paints
✨ Wrote a bee poem
✨ Cut out and labelled parts of a bee
✨ Went outside to observe bees in nature and learn about pollination firsthand

The children had such a wonderful time exploring, observing, creating, and connecting with nature through learning. 🌼

I was honestly so engrossed in the activities and conversations today that I completely forgot to get many videos, but I managed to capture a few little snippets to share with you all. 🤍

Only two more sessions of Hummingbird Home Hub this term 🐦✨

I completely forgot to release this post earlier — we’ve just been so busy, so in the flow of it all, and fully immersed in what we’re creating together.

Our new advert for the next 6-week term will be coming out next week, and there is so much magic ahead. We’re really excited about what’s coming 🤍

Over the past few months, the feedback from parents has honestly touched me so deeply. So many of you have said that this feels like home… and that means everything. Truly. I feel overwhelmed (in the best way) by the love and connection that’s grown here.

What we’ve created together is something really special — a beautiful, supportive, heart-led community. And that’s something that can’t be replicated. It’s built on real connection, trust, and shared energy.

To all the parents, all the children, and everyone who has been part of this journey — thank you. Thank you for your kindness, your presence, your openness, and your love.

We’re so proud of the community we’re growing together 🕊️✨

✨ Week 5 at Hummingbird Home Hub was extra sweet! ✨

We celebrated Pancake Day alongside World Kindness Day 🥞💛. The children explored what it means to be kind, discussed friend qualities, and made their very own kindness buckets. And of course… we got to make AND eat yummy, yummy pancakes! 😋

That wraps up Term 1! We’re taking a short break, and Term 2 will be back soon with 5 weeks of fun, learning, and creativity. 🎨🧁

Exciting news: we’re now incorporating cooking and baking EVERY term with a special volunteer joining us – can’t wait for the delicious adventures ahead! Stay tuned for our new flyer and dates coming shortly. 📅

🎄 Happy Christmas Eve, everyone! 🎅✨

We wanted to share a little bit of our Christmas joy with you — here’s a look back at our Christmas Fête last month! 💫

The children ran their own little stalls, selling homemade bracelets, peg dolls, and reindeer food, while some of the adults in our community joined in with fun games and treats like “Pick a Lollipop and Win a Prize” boards, Make Your Own Gingerbread Houses, and the sweetest cupcakes and lollipops made by our wonderful parents and volunteers. 🧁🍭

We also had a lovely charity stall, filled with donated gifts and prizes — all to help families who might not be able to afford presents this year. ❤️

Of course, Santa made a special visit, the grotto was magical, and the children finished the day with some beautiful Christmas carols. 🎶🎁

It was such a heartwarming day of fun, community, and kindness — a reminder of what this season is all about. 🌟

💛 We don’t make any profit from our events — any money raised goes straight back into the Hub to support the children with new resources, games, and special visitors.

From all of us at Hummingbird Home Hub,
we wish you a very Merry Christmas Eve and a peaceful, joyful Christmas! 🎄🕊️

Thank you to James for filming again and capturing all the special moments 🥰

🎄✨ What a magical few weeks it’s been!

The children have been busy creating wooden nutcrackers, designing their own elves, and getting creative with writing and drawing. We’ve made beautiful holly wreaths, Christmas bracelets, and candle holders — and played so many fun games (the blindfold snowball fight is now a weekly favourite 😄❄️).

We’ve built dens in the park, laughed until our tummies hurt, and filled our days with imagination, joy, and friendship. ❤️

So grateful for this beautiful community, for all the happy faces, and for the love and laughter that fill our days. Two more weeks of festive fun to go — then our big Christmas party to finish the term! 🎅🎁✨
