Brave Writer

How can you go beyond the daily grind of lessons to truly enliven your kids’ learning? In this episode, we go over two methods that you might have already observed pop up naturally in your kids’ lives: rabbit trials and rabbit holes.

Is your kid super obsessed with something at the moment? That’s great! Feed their “rabbit hole” deep-dive with as much material and curiosity as you can.

Does your kid jump from one related topic to another? That’s great too! They are making connections between how things work via “rabbit trails.”

Your child’s natural curiosity is something to be fed, not fought. Join them in the hole or trail!
