About the store
As an elementary art teacher and mom of 2, I wanted to create a place where you could come and quickly find fun and engaging activities. My activities can be used in both the classroom or at home. I am truly a child at heart and I love making learning fun and magical.
Stay tuned for more materials coming soon! Working on quick art sub plans, parent/teacher goodie bag ideas, sensory play, etc. When I'm brave enough, I hope to start posting videos on Instagram.

Teaching style
Exploration and being apart of the process really helps children connect to the materials, topic, or learning process. In my house, my children often help with preparing dinner, baking, planting, etc. Having them see and be apart of the process is so important.
Check out my Instagram page "keepthemexploring" for examples of activities you can do at home with young learners to support fine motor skills, sensory play, etc.
