What better way to spend a holiday weekend than playing an all new game we created for @almasway? Play with Alma's family, or grab your own sibling for a classic game of Dominos together!

Step 1 - vote!
Step 2 - draw! (or something else that is comforting, creative, joy-filled!)
Thanks, @wendymac!

We've heard a lot about helicopter parenting, but this concept of lighthouse parenting from @TheAtlantic shares another way we can be a grounded presence in kids' lives while still giving autonomy.

We love the new wave of creatives that are changing the world of poetry, and who we can take current inspiration from in our teaching and learning! A great collection from @mindshiftkqed.

We're excited for our newest game with @ElinorWonders - a creativity tool with the added delight of nature prompts, stickers, and textures! 🎨 🌻The perfect way to create art that encourages curiosity and connects to our wonderful world.
Play on the @PBSKIDS site or games app!
As Fall quickly approaches, we can imagine a spooky board game night with So You've Been Cursed, by LudiCreations on @Kickstarter.

Thanks to @pbsteachers for telling the stories of historical moments in government, like the first Asian American woman in Congress, Patsy Mink!

Another enjoyable listen on a car ride with the whole family - @AnorakMagazine's Happy Podcast for Kids! For all the collectors out there, we especially enjoyed this episode's question of how items get chosen for museums.

An enlightening video from @edutopia on the profound benefits that pushing into the discomfort of "productive struggle" can have on learning!
While there are so many benefits of digital engagement in classrooms, this article with @MindShiftKQED emphasizes the deeper engagement our brains have when reading on paper. A case for physical books in classrooms and at home!
