Being a capable adult means comparing ideas, askin
Being a capable adult means comparing ideas, asking questions, seeking out more than one perspective, thinking critically, and forming your own informed opinions.

These are things we need to practice before adulthood!

This week inside Inspiration Is Here we're doing exactly that through a simple invitation that helps children compare ideas and explain their thinking. My girls have been busy watching some TED talks on different topics.

I'm not interested in curriculum, busywork, and memorising random facts. I'm interested in raising capable kids who can think for themselves.

Want to join us? We'll be focusing on the practices that grow capable teens for the next 5 weeks. You can find the link to join 'Inspiration is Here' in my bio ❤️
