Flow To Learn an uplifting, illustrated parent's guide offering 52 weeks filled with practical suggestions and compassionate insights to help your child through the ups and downs of childhood. Using practical, evidence-based tools from the fields of child development, psychology, and child-centered education, parents are guided step-by-step through the creation of simple hands-on activity stations that boost children's love for learning. In these prepared environments, children naturally experience flow, the focused state scientifically proven to be the optimal condition for learning. Flow activity stations free up parents' time while strengthening children with spaces that support their inherent talents, creativity, and wide-ranging intelligence.
Have you seen your child focus so deeply that they lose themselves in a task?
When did you last lose track of time because you were having so much fun?
What did you spend hours doing as a child? Do you remember that feeling?
Flow is the focused, fulfilling state of learning that children and adults naturally experience during play, movement and hands-on activities they love. In flow, we feel alive, we are authentically interested and deeply absorbed-and this is how we learn best and achieve more!
FLOW (in order) TO LEARN invites parents to reinvigorate their life with children using practical elements and compassionate insights from child development, psychology, and child-centered education to bring the joy and inspiration of learning in flow into their homes.
Explore the 52 inspiring chapters to enrich every week of the year:
