  1. This is great. My children are past this, but their children are just about ready for these activities. I am commenting as I work through your website. Your arts and crafts section is great, and there are so many activities. I am very impressed that you have made it fun for the kids and still relevant for the parents.

    My Daughter, Alison, has a little boy called Zach who will love this in another year or so. But I am also interested to hear her opinion on your website as she is a teacher at a primary school. 

    You have humanized this and I am very impressed with your skill as an educator. This is definitely a save and I will be sending it to my daughter.

    You will be hearing from me again, thank you.

    1. Thanks Steve,

      I have now retired from teaching/consulting so am aiming this at parents/carers rather than teachers as I am aware that I am no longer keeping up with what is going on in schools in the way you do as a teacher.  

      I am doing this as a hobby and hope that it might be of interest to parents all over the world. 

      Thank you for your encouragement

      All the best,

      Julia
