Itty Bitty Play Committee A whimsical, homestead preschool giving children ages 2-4y the chance to grow outside 🌱🎨

There's such an interconnectedness between messy play and social-emotional learning.

The gift of child-led play is that children get to experience, again and again, that messes and mistakes are natural parts of doing anything as a human.

What a healing freedom it is to grow up knowing that getting something wrong doesn't make you wrong. That you can always try again 🤍🌿

Part 1 of an Itty Bitty series about the role of teachers here on the homestead. Because there's so much more happening in this child-led environment than just messes and play.

If your child isn't ready to sit at a desk for a structured day of learning... good! They're exactly where they're supposed to be.

A school that is ready for the child is one that adapts to them. There's so much pressure put on parents and children to be academically "ready," but the children ARE ready and SO CAPABLE, if we only give them room to be 🤍🌿

Children already know how to be child-led.

The lessons this philosophy has offered have been for us grown-ups to learn (and unlearn).

Child-led education asks us to slow down, question what we've always assumed about childhood, and be in community with children. What a healing experience it's been 🤍🌿

After teaching in centers and public schools for 14 years, I designed the preschool I couldn't stop dreaming about.

A little homestead preschool where childhood is celebrated and children are centered in community. Where play and curiosity are valued as foundational parts of learning.

A messy, loud, whimsical little garden of children 🤍🌿
