Six years ago I started a forest school because I believed kids, including mine, needed something different.
Then last fall, my daughter asked to try public school.
It challenged a lot of assumptions I had, but what hasn’t changed is my belief that kids still need nature, freedom, and time to explore. 🐾🦋
And I’m still working to change the modern educational system, even while my kids are in it. 💚
What path has your family taken when it comes to school?

🌿Listen… this isn’t my first time singing their praises, but when something stands the test of time in your homeschool? You talk about it again. 👀💁♀️
These nature guides have been *through it* with us… muddy backpacks, backyard discoveries, nature walks, & years of homeschooling, & they are STILL our favorites. 🙌
The Julia Rothman Nature Guides are the kind of books that don’t just sit pretty on a shelf (though they absolutely could 😍)… they invite you outside, sparking curiosity, slow observation, & the quiet kind of wonder that sticks. 🐌🍃
ALSO, can I just say how excited we are for the *birds edition* coming out?! 🐦👏 (Take my money already.)
These are a whole experience, beautiful, durable, inspiring, & honestly….a little bit magical. ✨

Seven years of Barefeet Farm School! I’m grateful and proud. This is your sign to take the leap.

(And do you know that I wrote down all the things I learned the hard way in Blueprint for an Outdoor Learning Environment so that you can learn them the easy way? It’s in the bio of course)

Mud washes off… and your child only gets ONE Childhood…
Scrapes, dirt, wet shoes, messy hair, and tired bodies at the end of the day… that’s what real childhood looks like. And those small, uncomfortable moments are where confidence, strength, and independence are built.
Let them climb.
Let them explore.
Let them be kids.

One thing about Cooper, he’s always going to take every opportunity to sneak an outside animal in the house. 😅
And before yall start, NO this is not becoming an indoor cat!
