Maker Family is an award winning team, passionate in making while unschooling & worldschooling our children. Everyone loves making!

We invented STEM education materials, working on enviromental conservation projects & running education exchange programs internationally. We had a crazy year 2016 embarking on a really cool & inspiring journey in "making"! It all started from a workshop at Makerbay, then it just went viral & we love spending hours or days at Makerbay. Nothing more rewarding than spending quality family time toget

Joe was once upon a time so little ~
Thanks to everyone of you, who made an impact into who he became today!

Joe had the incredible opportunity to be the delegate of Sweden attending the 18th Asia Youth International Model United Nations Asia Youth International MUNโ€” an experience that truly fuels his passion for shaping a better future. ๐Ÿ’™

Not only did he get to collaborate with over 900 youth leaders from around the world, pushing for bold solutions like carbon pricing, while also learning to appreciate the voices of all cultures and striving to balance the greater good in the fight against climate change ๐ŸŒฑโš–๏ธ โ€” he was also awarded an Honorable Mention for his strong and consistent performance throughout the event!

As parents, nothing makes us prouder than watching Joe grow into a fine young man โ€” one who not only dreams big but also cares deeply for people and the future ahead. ๐Ÿ’ซ

Joe, you have always carried in your heart the desire to make a difference โ€” to use whatever little power you have to make this world just a little better. Weโ€™ve had the privilege of watching you live out that dream step by step, with so much determination and sincerity. It inspires us, and those around you, to also try a little harder every day to be better versions of ourselves. ๐Ÿ’–

๐Ÿ’ฅ๐ŸŒˆ Special thanks to Teacher Ivan Se Hoo for always being the strongest supporter, relentless mentor & selfless sharing to Joe throughout his journey. Thank you very much, you are a true blessing to all students ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Hereโ€™s a glimpse of his journey at AYIMUN ๐ŸŽฅ๐Ÿ‘‡

Letโ€™s keep lifting up the voices of young people โ€” their passion and ideas are what the world truly needs. ๐ŸŒŸ

๐ŸŒ€ Karen just made an appearance on the local Luxury Magazine ๅ“Prestige January 2025 edition.

It has been somewhat a journey โ›ฐ๏ธ๐ŸŒŠ~

Love the title:

Seeing her being interviewed & photographed at the studio, it was a lot to take in, it still is. It feels like just yesterday she was born with such tiny body, and now she is all ready to conquer the world.

"Adults are always busy; they donโ€™t have time to listen to kids. So I write, so that adults can read when they have time later," said little Karen.

A simple yet profound truth. How often are we guilty of dismissing childrenโ€™s voices, overwhelmed by the rush of lifeโ€™s priorities?

But someone listened. Someone read.

Mr. Shuji from Japan took the time to immerse himself in Karenโ€™s heartfelt words, to truly understand her perspective. He didnโ€™t just stop thereโ€”he penned a beautiful article about what Karenโ€™s book meant to him. And today, Karenโ€™s "What Can an 8-Year-Old Tell You?" has found its place on ๐…๐จ๐ซ๐›๐ž๐ฌ ๐‰๐š๐ฉ๐š๐ง, reaching readers far and wide.

This milestone isnโ€™t just about a book or a feature. Itโ€™s a celebration of what happens when we pause to hear the voices of young changemakersโ€”voices with the power to move hearts and minds across the world.

Thank you, Mr. Shuji, for amplifying Karenโ€™s words.๏ฟฝThank you, Forbes Japan, for giving her a platform.๏ฟฝAnd thank you, Anne and Stuart, for believing in the brilliance of childrenโ€™s voices.

As Karenโ€™s words touch hearts in Japan , we can only imagine the impact Karenโ€™s words would have if they could reach even more people across different cultures and languages.

A glimpse into little Karen in her favourite black leather jacket appearing Live in the studio of Lite FM.

It brought tears to my eyes see her being comfortable in her zone, speaking out her thoughts eloquently, she maybe little in size but not too little in voiceโ€ฆ.
