Join a community
of like-minded parents who want to help their child learn in a way that feels
FUN & ADDICTIVE!
(and easy and enjoyable for them!)
WITHOUT the need for nagging, bribes, schedules, lesson plans or a constant stream of activity setups!
Many parents tell me that they find engaging their kids in play and learning to be stressful, exhausting and overwhelming...
They spend hours setting up, and packing down, activity stations
They find it hard to keep their kids engaged and interested
They have no time for themselves
They feel like they are constantly having to keep up to date with new and creative ideas
They’re comparing themselves to other parents
They feel like their role as a 'playmate' and ‘teacher’ is never-ending.
But what if I told you that everything we knew about learning is WRONG?
And what if a new way forward could make your life feel easier and more spacious, and your child’s learning experience feel more exciting and engaging?
It's a huge myth that we need to TEACH our children before they will LEARN.
If this were true, children would never learn how to crawl, walk or talk would they?
The truth is, children are intrinsically wired to WANT TO LEARN and they are NATURAL LEARNERS.
Parents do not have to ‘hold their hands’, set up a million and one play stations, invest a huge amount of money into buying lots of different toys or be super creative!
No, all parents need to do is fan the flames of their child’s natural curiosity and desire to learn ... and learning will happen.
THIS is authentic learning - learning that happens authentically, organically and ‘on-the-go’, without the need for regimented and structured learning activities.
The Authentic Learning Experience will show you how to do this in your own home!
The great news is that once you know how to do it - it’s easy!
The Authentic Learning Experience,
Is an affordable interactive monthly group membership that will show you how to...
Turn PLAY into ACTIVE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES so your kids can have fun and learn at the same time (no creative skills necessary!)
Teach your kids how to play and learn INDEPENDENTLY so they can foster their capacity to be creative thinkers (and you can have a break!)
Parent with CONFIDENCE knowing that you are helping your child to learn and develop, and setting them up for success in later life.
Feel MORE JOY and LESS OVERWHELM because you’re not wasting your time creating activities your child isn’t interested in, and not engaging in unnecessary power struggles with them to try and get them to learn.
The honest truth here, in my opinion, is that parents
are the ones who need to be taught how children learn!
And the fact of the matter is, despite what we’ve been taught...
CHILDREN LEARN BEST THROUGH PLAY!
Most adults have it all backwards. When they think of learning, they think of stacks of workbooks, assessments, timetables, schedules, planning and tuition.
They think that learning and play are two completely different things, and that play should be used as a reward, or reserved for rest and leisure times only.
In fact, this was my upbringing to a tee - and it wasn’t fun or inspiring in the slightest!
Perhaps this was your experience too?
What if your child could experience learning differently to how YOU experienced learning in your childhood?
What if learning could be easy and effortless, and didn’t feel like fingernails scratching on a chalkboard?
What if learning could be FUN?
What Others are Saying
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.”
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.
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."

Meet Your Authentic Learning Coach
Well hello there! I'm Jules, the founder of Stories of Play
I was a fully qualified early childhood teacher for several years (and LOVED it!) after receiving a Masters degree in Early Years.
And then I became a mum to 3 kids in 3 years.
After that, life changed. Yes, it got a whole lot more fun, but it also got very full and chaotic! I left my day job, started my own business (crazy, I know!) and cared for 3 little people as a stay at home Mum.
To say that I’m a busy and time poor mum is a massive understatement!
Despite this, my children engage in joyful and playful learning each and every day without needing much of my effort, attention and time and without adding stress and overwhelm onto my already full plate
The Authentic Learning Experience
is a culmination of EVERYTHING I’ve learned as an early childhood teacher and stay at home Mum of 3 kids under 5.
It’s my mission to help you confidently and effortlessly help your children to learn
without feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and full of self doubt
So you can parent CONFIDENTLY, JOYFULLY, and have the PEACE OF MIND that your children are constantly learning and developing.
