The best learning happens through hands-on play ✨

With a simple STEM kit, my son explored electricity, gears, and how the earth and moon orbit the sun — all while having fun. Meanwhile, I kept his little brother busy with sensory play 🙌

Perfect for little scientists and busy moms 💛

A little Christmas creativity before school this morning 🎄✂️
We don’t stop schooling when mainstream schools close — we’ve found it works so much better for my two to have lighter daily workloads, steady structure, and short, regular breaks.

Long weekends each month, a couple of weeks off during the year, public holidays… and in between, space for moments like this. It keeps everyone regulated and turns an ordinary school day into a fun one. 💛

🌿 How do you start your week?

I started mine by making a big pot of bone broth. With a neurodiverse family, food plays such an important role in keeping everyone grounded, happy, and regulated. It’s such a simple thing to do, but it makes a huge difference in how the rest of the week flows — nourishing, balancing, and bringing a sense of calm to our meals.

Really one of the best places to have your kids learn about the arts - what a variety! Francois was captivated by the engineering and science behind photography and sculpture - finding out that a custom built bicycle is a work of art. Adriaan loved to learn about monotype printing and trying out different marks with watercolour and oil pastels.

For youth day we visited the long walk to freedom exhibition in Century City - 100 sculptures commemorating all the people from our history that lead South Africa to become a democratic country. The game we played - pick your favorite 3 sculptures and then go and research them using Chat GPT. Most importantly think about the questions you will ask and remember to ask where the information was sourced, then read!
