TOGETHER.

We do life as a family. We believe the most important lessons for our futures are nurtured at home and together –  discovery through play, encouragement to do (and fail) and purposeful communication.

Play hard, question everything and make stuff.

LOVE.

Love is the largest word in our tag cloud.  It’s the foundation of respect, and respect should be the first filter we apply to any situation.  Love is also a seed for empathy, which is required to build solutions for others.

Love also = discipline, so don’t confuse it with soft.

LEARN.

Learning happens whether we’re paying attention or not.  Surround yourself with diverse information and immerse yourself in curiosity.  Always be reading, asking, making and sharing.

Do or do not… there is no try.

Children must be taught how to think, not what to think.

Margaret Mead
