We’re a Canadian family of four with a passion for creativity and learning. We like reading books, digging in the dirt of our garden, travelling, playing board games, having parties for our friends, going on nature hikes, and just generally exploring the world together with our children. 

This blog first came about to preserve memories of our favourite experiences as a family, but quickly turned into a collection of tutorials for handmade toys. As two crafters, we often feel compelled to express our affections through making things, and so our nursery quickly started filling with fairy tree houses, puppet theatres, and unicorn hobby horses. As soon as our children were old enough to stick their fingers in paint, we also started working on crafts together. But that was just the beginning of the blog. 

When our son was approaching school age, we decided that it would be interesting to explore homeschooling. The possibility for a child to learn what he wants, while having real-life experiences and making memories with us, seemed like a fantastic adventure. We gave it a go and rediscovered the pleasure of learning for ourselves as well. Since then, we’ve turned our blog into a hub for creative learning. 

We still make quite a few toys, but we give them an educational spin. Check out these anatomy paper dolls or this printable windmill model!

We design and print educational board games. Many board games give a lesson in math and critical thinking, and we always include another interesting topic of study – like our Amazing Women: Guess Who Game or Flag Bingo.

We try to include as many hands-on projects as possible, so that in the end our children will remember not just pages of books, but things they made themselves.

With our blog, we want to inspire adults and children to see every topic as an adventure and explore it through fun games and creative projects.
