What does interest-led learning actually look like on a real Tuesday?
In this episode I’m bringing you inside our home — the real version, not the highlight reel. How our mornings start, what our must-dos look like, how the day opens up, and what happens when Aarin comes home from daycare at 4pm.
Plus — something I want every parent to hear: the interest-led path doesn’t start when you pull your child from school. It starts the moment you decide to see your child clearly.
Topics covered:
— Why we don’t have an alarm and why that matters
— What language arts actually looks like
— organic, conversational, woven into life
— The honest truth about math
— we do it anyway, slowly, gently, without tears
— What the open part of our day actually produces
— Why Aarin is in play-based daycare and what that says about this philosophy
— What changes when Aarin comes home at 4pm
— Why the hard days are part of it too
