Hey Mama, what if I told you that...
Learning for your children is EFFORTLESS, EXCITING and ADDICTIVE!
And imagine if this were all possible without the need for nagging, bribes, schedules, lesson plans or a constant stream of activity setups
What if everything we knew about learning is WRONG?
It is a huge myth that we need to TEACH before our children will LEARN.
If it were true, children would never learn how to crawl, walk or talk would they?
Fact is, children are intrinsically wired to WANT TO LEARN.
But that fire for learning will fizzle out if we do not fan the flames for learning to occur.
The honest truth here, in my opinion, is that parents are the ones who need to be taught how children learn!
So that the entire process of learning becomes easy and effortless and learning time doesn’t seem like fingernails scratching on a chalkboard
The latter was the kind of learning I grew up with as a child.
Stacks and stacks of workbooks and assessment books. Timetables. Schedules. Hours of tuition and supplementary lessons.
Play was only reserved for rest/leisure.
What if your children could experience learning differently to how YOU experienced learning in your childhood?
Learn how to fan the flames of a child's natural curiosity and desire to learn
- Discover exactly what children are learning when they play
- Understand the fundamental ways of how children learn so you can help them learn naturally and with ease
- Learn how to recognise the endless opportunities for learning through everyday play and everyday life
What Others Are Saying
Doreen (mum of 4yo & 2yo)
"My intentions and mental preparations have changed to better suit their needs and learning patterns. I can also see that they enjoy playing open-ended toys and the best result so far is that my elder one is self-motivated to approach the toys and didn't need my presence for a good while.
If you're thinking twice because you may not have the time to watch it or invest time to apply, then I can attest to it that you don't have to go through ALL of the materials to be able to make a difference or change. It's a gradual process and it takes time, yes, but there's no regrets. It's one of the best investments I've made.
Tiffany (mum of 2.5 year old)
“I used to screenshot activities I see on social media, set them up for my child and pressure him to complete them. Then when he doesn’t want to do them, I wonder why I bother setting these up in the first place.
But now I often just go with the flow and I feel like I don’t have to force anything. The biggest change so far is within myself. Letting go of expectations and not worrying about whether I’m doing enough, I realise that when I do less, they actually learn more.”
Jasmine (mum of 15 month old)
"Being a first-time mom, I did not really know how to go about it and have no idea on how to start a child-led play environment in the house, so I wanted to learn from the basics on creating a inclusive and conducive fun learning environment for my child at home.
Now, my 15 month old toddler is able to play independently in her own play space I have created for her based on what I have learnt from the program on creating an inviting play space."
So what will we cover in our time together?

The Authentic Learning Method is focused on you making progress.
Which of these stages speak to you the most?
Stage 1
Envision Your Eden
You are new to the idea of authentic learning. You’re ready to unlearn your preconceived ideas about play and learning and you’re excited about the possibilities of what learning effortlessly through unstructured play and everyday life could look like. It is time to get clear on your WHY and your BIG vision (goals & dreams) for the future of your child’s learning.
Stage 2
Study Your Seed
You are beginning to see that children learn through play, but you are not convinced that all play is meaningful and valuable. You are very much in the experimental stage of authentic learning as you begin to learn more about your individual child, discovering his/her interests, learning styles, temperament, love language and stage of development.
Stage 3
Prepare the Space
You are finding your confidence as an attuned parent. You are becoming more intentional in making time and space for play and learning to happen organically and authentically (i.e. more child-directed and less adult-led). You are starting to see opportunities for learning throughout the day. It’s time for you to leverage the power of the prepared environment by setting up and maintaining a well-thought-out space for your children to play and learn independently.
Stage 4
Strengthen the Roots
You are reaping the benefits of having a prepared environment for your child in terms of his/her ability to play independently for moderate to long periods of time. You are also starting to recognise all the learning that occurs during play. You know play is a way of connecting with your child but you are also beginning to see the immense resource and value you bring as a purposeful playmate and you are keen to learn the art of playing with your child.
Stage 5
Bloom and Grow
You are fully convinced that all play is learning. You can clearly articulate all the learning that is taking place during play and recognise the learning opportunities that present itself in everyday life. You’re also able to confidently facilitate spontaneous teachable moments to extend on your child’s learning. You are parenting with the assurance and the peace of mind that your children are self-motivated and are constantly learning, even when it seems like they are “just playing”.
So, where are you on The Authentic Learning Journey?
Did you identify with any of the characteristics outlined in the stages of this journey?
Perhaps you connected with one stage right away.
Perhaps you find yourself scattered across several stages.

Well hello there! I'm Jules, founder of Stories of Play
I was a fully qualified early childhood teacher for several years after receiving a Masters in Early Years.
I’ve learnt so many things on the job with regards to child development, the value of play as well as how children learn.

And added business to the mix, working from home on top of all the chaos of parenting 3 little people on a daily basis.

And yet my children have continued to engage in joyful playful learning on the daily,
without needing more of my effort and time
Without adding more stress and overwhelm onto my full plate
I’ve now taken EVERYTHING I KNOW as teacher and mum, drawing from my knowledge and experiences as an early childhood teacher as well as a SAHM of 3 kids under 4, to create this membership teaching you how to confidently help your children to learn, effortlessly and without any overwhelm
So you can parent CONFIDENTLY, JOYFULLY, and have the PEACE OF MIND that your children are constantly learning.
