Learning, Discovering and Teaching Through Play   

Learning is not always about teaching. Some of the best learning is done through discovery and play. As parents, we are our childrens first and most important teachers. In my own children, I hope to instill a love of learning that takes them through their school ages and follows them throughout their lives. Today there seems to be so much focus and pressure to create little geniuses that it is easy to forget that our kids don’t need us to make them brilliant; they need us to love them, play with them and be there with them to answer all of their questions.

Here you will find all sorts of ideas and things to inspire that inner child and re-live those wonderful moments of childhood discovery. With sections dedicated to infants, toddlers, preschoolers and parents I hope that this place will become a valuable source of information for you during those fun-filled, frustrating first few years. (whew what a mouthful!)

Please feel free to explore the site to see all that we have to offer. Don’t forget to bookmark us so you can revisit often.

Founded in 2005 lovinglearning.com has sought to find ways to help parents enjoy their children while they are still young. Whether it is cuddling with a newborn, teaching your toddler to read or creating your own business so that you can stay at home with your family I want this place to be a resource and sanctuary of sorts for parents of all ages. All of your feedback is appreciated as it helps this site become what I want it to be.

Why LovingLearning?

Well there are only so many .com names left on the web that people haven’t snapped up; More importantly, I wanted the name to signify that it is our parents who develop in our children a lifelong love of learning. By feeding your child loving ways of learning we can accomplish this not only in our children but ourselves as well.

Who is that masked woman anyways?

A work at home mom of two children. My favorite age is 3 because of the visible and dramatic learning that goes on at this age. I enjoy gardening (a lifelong learning endeavor!) which often consists of hunting down varieties of heirloom vegetables, herbs and edible flowers which are hard to find. Currently we live in a wonderful city filled with resources and activities for us to explore and enjoy.

We aim to live on a small acreage where we can strive to be as self sufficient as possible. We ourselves are constantly learning and taking courses to help us achieve this goal. We have many other side projects on the go besides this site which involve making this world a better place for our children – please visit our other site Consumable Earth.
