I love this! I was an unschooling mom back in the 90’s. Best thing I’ve ever done. Now I get to do it with my grandson... the best.

"Unschooling is not just about learning; it's also about building strong relationships with our children. ...Whether it's a morning cuddle...or a bedtime chat, these moments of connection deepen our bonds and make learning a shared adventure." I couldn't agree more. Our son (12) has had the good fortune of never having to wake up to an alarm clock, and each morning has the relaxed attitude of a Saturday, where a big and nutritious breakfast is paramount! Your page has a beautiful aesthetic, and I'm sure your children benefit greatly from your conscientious approach to things.

Love this and love the watercolours! I’ll get to making some soon. We sort of have a rhythm to bookend the days but I know the inconsistency of if we are going out or staying home during the day throws my 3 yr old off. He’s such a home body and needs a lot of time to mentally prepare.

I look forward to seeing them Kat. Those days with a newborn and toddler 😍 I loved them so much but I certainly didn't have a rhythm down!

Really enjoyed reading about your family's rhythms and rituals - it's given me lots of inspiration. I feel like it would be good to incorporate some of these things into our weekends, especially the themed days and family meetings. Your artwork is gorgeous too ❤️

Thanks Jenna, love the idea of having the weekend rhythm as a stand alone part of the week. Perfect for those with children at school ❤️
