200 - Learning from Dragons - Without Planning a Thing!


Listen Later

Text Sue what you think!

How do kids really learn without curriculum?

What if learning is hiding in the things we almost dismiss as “just for fun”?

Let's use Appreciate a Dragon Day as a real-life example of how learning shows up naturally — through curiosity, imagination, conversation, and play — without planning lessons or following a curriculum.

Parents exploring unschooling or questioning traditional homeschooling can learning how to notice learning instead of trying to engineer it.

You’ll hear about:

  • How everyday interests connect to real learning
  • Why play, storytelling, and imagination matter
  • What learning without curriculum actually looks like
  • How to see subjects woven into ordinary moments

For more ideas and specific ways to weave multiple subjects into a day, check out the blogpost with
