Hi, I’m Nikki. Mum of two home-educated children.
I used to spend hours scrolling and saving ALL the brilliant free ideas I’d see online, but… they never quite became reality. Mostly, I was left feeling even more overwhelmed and less organised, with all these activities swimming around in my head that didn’t really go together. I had no time to think. I wanted to be free and child-led, but worried I wasn’t doing enough.
What I needed was a little monthly topic to bring some focus back when we needed it, and to inspire some bigger questions.
Blossom & Stardust started as exactly that for my own family, and quickly grew into something I could share with others as a monthly subscription.
But then there was the LA report anxiety!
We all know learning happens all day, every day, but putting it into words can be really hard. That’s why every monthly study now includes a helpful learning summary, showing exactly what your child learned through the month, ready for when you come to write your annual report, or just to keep for your own records.
Using them in a forest school or school setting? There are curriculum links too.
I know! You’re welcome :-)
What Blossom & Stardust is all about.
I believe the best learning happens when children are happy & curious.
But I also know how real life goes. Some days it’s sunrise fox-spotting; some days it’s just getting through the day. So every study is made to work for both:
Curiosity first. Each month starts with a story, a legend or a question, so children want to find out more. Nothing feels like a worksheet.
Outside whenever you can. Hunts, nature walks, potions and seasonal crafts get little hands muddy and big questions flowing.
Easy on busy days. No planning and no prep. Just print, gather and go, and do as much or as little as suits your family.
Learning you can see (and explain if you need to). The learning summary shows what your child explored each month, so you can relax and trust that it all counts.
