The summer quest is open for members! Will your family join us?
With the Autonomy Adventurers Club, the idea is for families to have access to a self-paced adventure this summer that also grows their sense of self & connection as a family team along the way.

Little free passports are making their way into little free libraries around Portland. I’m excited for families to find them & explore the power of questing as a family team!
For families who want to keep heading out on new quests & missions, I’ve designed the Autonomy Adventurers Club. Link in Bio

Autonomy is freely choosing your own thoughts & actions.
Autonomy supportive environments & activities offer kids the space & opportunities to think & do for themselves.
That's a key goal of the Autonomy Adventurers Club for playful family teams.

We come into the world curious & playful. Those who manage to hang onto that nature know that life is play.
One of the best ways we can support autonomy & agency is to encourage kids to play. To guide their own activities. To make choices for themselves. To learn how to fail & keep going.

As an adult, I had an epiphany that I’m allowed to read books however I want to read them.
Toss a 📘 in the comments if this video inspires you to go grab a book off your shelf that you’ve been meaning to read & read it any way you want to read it.

As a former classroom teacher, I can't help but see permission slips as yet another way in which we train young minds to look outside of themselves for permission to take action.
I know there are some valid reasons to use systems when you have a lot of students in one place, but...

I love creating simple activities for families to be able to throw into the mix easily at any time.
This one offers 4 quick ideas for questions & approaches to rotate through during regular check-ins.
Could you see yourself trying these out? Would anything make them more accessible & easy to use?

Why support kids' autonomy?
There are endless answers to this question (which I’m working to share with greater simplicity & clarity).
So as just one example: Growing kids' autonomy involves regularly asking them, “What do you think?”
Kids who are used to sharing what they think don’t JUST...

If you've only got a second, the first number that comes to mind is perfect.
1 = Not at all true
10 = Entirely true
If you have an extra minute, I'd love to know your thoughts behind that number...why did that number fit your experience?

So far 2025 is already way too much.
But I don’t want to “check out”. That’s never been my answer.
I also don’t want to rush to conclusions or jump into actions that aren’t really my own.
Basically, social autonomy is hard.
And for me, connection is key...
