DRAGONFLY COVE

Welcome to our Dragonfly Cove Care Home and our Nook and a Book reading corner. This blog is a living, growing record of our kiddos during this beautiful time in our lives together. This kind of blogging is as personal and intimate as writing a journal or diary. Memories and experiences are the greatest gifts we can bestow on our children. Here we document and share the unique experiences, ideas and inspirations enriching our lives and the children in our care. You will see various pictures of our kiddos learning through play and inquiry in every day life

A couple of ideas and quotes related to our blog and growth...

"Life isn't about finding yourself; It's about creating yourself."
"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it's learning to dance in the rain"

My passion and love of learning stems from a belief that learning is a life-long process. We strive to be open and adaptable to the many changes and challenges of everyday life. I try to model continued learning as the children see me reading, studying and implementing new, creative adaptations and theory to our home indoor and outdoor environments and lives. By giving them these roots, my hope is they will also follow a path of inquiry and know as students of life, they will always be learning and growing

Here is an excerpt from "How Does Learning Happen? Ontario’s Pedagogy for the Early Years" which directly pertains to our blog here...

"a means of sharing perspectives with parents and colleagues. When families and others are invited to contribute to the documentation and share their own interpretations, it can provide even more insights that children, educators, and families can return to, reflect on, and remember in order to extend learning."

We love reading your thoughts and comments! Thanks so much for embarking on this special, memorable journey with us... lots of love

Blessings of Easter♥

We celebrate Easter and did so in the physical isolation of 2020 that has left it's own mark on all our festivities.  It is a challenge but Easter is the same... Easter doesn't change... the way we celebrate changes by necessity or design but Easter is the same.  We took comfort in that as we wished our loved ones from afar a Happy Easter and a joyous spring.  There is also a comfort that spring remains the same and the signs are everywhere for us to discover.

On a hygge nature walk yesterday, we were able to observe the many signs of spring that have come to grace our homestead once again.  My daughter documented her first crocus of the season with a photograph she took herself.  She marveled at nature moving on as is should with our lives feeling so stationary at the moment.  I hope you get a chance to walk around outside your home and take note yourself and revel in the renewal of springtime♥



These marvelous scavenger hunts come to us from
