Loving your work! On a philosophical note, we all may do well to keep this in mind: Kids are naturally curious, and by extension, learning constantly. It's just not always obvious what they're learning, or remembering. They may well remember fondly hearing about the vanilla orchid while licking their bowls, though there's no outward sign of interest now.
i couldn't agree more. this is something i continually have to remind myself of..the idea of lighting the fire instead of filling a bucket or checking things off a list. the never ending discussion of productivity these days, and all the apps and such, is enough to send me off the interwebs forever!

You’re so right that it’s something we have to work on and remind ourselves of, especially if we went to school ourselves.
Thanks Catherine! Could you do a post on where you find all these educational videos and which ones you recommend? Really enjoying your blog x
Thank you Lucy! Yes that’s a great idea, I’ll have a think…
