Childhood Rediscovered

Have you ever wished you could give your child an old fashioned childhood? The kind they'll look back on and reminisce  about "the good ol' days?" Childhood isn't a race. It isn't a checklist. It's a few short years that we only get once. Here at The Backyard School, which is quite literally in my backyard, we spend our days playing. We dig for worms, we get muddy, we build forts, and we play in the sandbox. Here's the best part: We don't feel guilty about it at all. 

A World of Learning

Worried about academics? For starters, you shouldn't be. But, if you are, let me say this- I'm not afraid of academics! Sure, we play outside most of the day, and your child could stay on the same swing for an hour, but we also do daily journals, circle time, and explore thematic units. In fact, don't be surprised if your child comes home telling you the characteristics of an insect, who Frida Kahlo is, or even what the word subitize means. We read, write, and count. We just don't stress about it all day!

Meet Jen

Hi, I'm Jen! In 2015, after teaching in public school for five years, I had a vision of creating this little school in my home. 

 

It's grown from just me to a true family operation. Most days you'll find one of my parents helping out, as well as both of my own sweet kids, who are part of our class.
