Welcome!

Let’s raise little explorers, together.

Discover practical play plans designed to help nurture curious, confident kids.

Join me as I try to make the most out of these messy, magical early years.

As a busy, work-from-home mom with a curious toddler, I often wonder if I’m doing enough.

Am I reading enough books? Singing enough songs? Creating enough meaningful moments in this short, wild season of childhood?

I’m not the DIY supermom with perfectly handcrafted toys, but I’ve found my own way.

That’s where my play plans come in. Like lesson plans for older kids, they follow the 5 E’s Model but with a playful twist. They’re designed to spark curiosity, follow their natural interests, and turn everyday moments into meaningful learning experiences.

Because in the end, it’s about letting our little ones lead, while we’re right there, cheering them on.
