25.01.2022 I cannot tell you how grateful I am for each customer photo. Each serves with a beautiful moment of nostalgia as I see each piece in your home or centres. But they also tell a story of play through imagery, that helps other mamas and educators discover our little store and decide what pieces are right for them. Thank you, thank you, thank you ..and stay tuned for our brand rep search launching TONIGHT ... @woodentinywonders See more

22.01.2022 how full is your bucket? Ive started using the language of a metaphorical love cup when checking in emotionally with my son. He was quick to say he doesnt have a cup, but in fact a bucket (a timely reminder that our capacity to love and be loved is huge). ... It seems to help as it puts something tangible around the intangible. We can talk about what filled his bucket today and when it isnt full, what might be some things that could help fill his bucket. He is six and very much able to articulate his needs now, of course this is often a request for a wrestle of some kind - he will always ask to play this when he is seeking connection. Remember that we all have different love languages - both in how we feel best aligned to express and receive love. Have you explored the idea of a love cup with your child?

18.01.2022 Thank you to everyone who came and made the @perthwaldorfschoolwa open day such a beautiful day! This mama and babe duo were definitely the most popular buy today - I have a just handful left online!

18.01.2022 You can now be the first to know when products are back in stock I added a new feature to our website today, allowing you to join the waitlist for any products out of stock. This means you will automatically get an email as soon as the item returns. I strongly encourage you to do so too, because we choose to support slow made, for lots of items we can only secure limited quantities of, being the first to know is the best way to ensure you secure the pieces you have been waiting for - like the ever popular wooden paint holder sets captured here by @ourplayroomdiaries_

14.01.2022 Paying it forward with glitter To say we have all had a heavy few months is an understatement. We are all holding something - from the loneliness stemming from weeks of isolation, to the grief of being distanced from loved ones, alongside the myriad of other events our life journey might have encountered this year. To brighten someones day, albeit for a moment, please tag a friend or family member below and remind them of their strength. I will randomly select one person to receive a little craft kit - including some of our plastic free glitter

13.01.2022 Free crystals with every hundreds board purchase! My mistake is your gain! I ordered waaay too many mini crystals, so until Friday, I am gifting TWO mini crystal sets with every hundreds board purchase. Thats more than 100 crystals - enough for each spot on the board No code needed! ... Get yours here: https://www.arkandluna.com.au/product/hundreds-board/ @our.dandelion.days

12.01.2022 Open ended toys are key to unlocking the imagination potential that intrinsically exists within your little one. Here is a little video talking about why they are so wonderful - and some of the key pieces we like to include in our play space

11.01.2022 The TV didnt move with us to the new house. I see this as a beautiful opportunity to create new rhythm and routine - which for us includes little to no screen time.

09.01.2022 children are BEINGS not BECOMINGS If you watched my story today, you would have seen me talk a little about adultism (also referred to as childism). We very much live in a society where the dominate narrative is that of adults. In our latest blog post, I talk a little bit about how this can lead to an unconscious conditioning where there is a social acceptance around the shaming of children and they can become marginalised. Conditioning is powerful, I encourage you... to read this blog with an open heart, reflect and be a part of the change. Small steps can create collectively huge cultural shifts Tell me some examples of adultism you have seen what are some actions we can take to be a part of change? Read the blog here: https://www.arkandluna.com.au/what-is-adultism/

08.01.2022 Education that is flexible and varied - mirroring the very complex and unique nature of every soul it touches Im a massive advocate for education that respects children wholeheartedly and see them for their unique offerings with strengths to be nurtured. Whether you are home educating, in the public or private schooling system, this is a model of education we can all advocate for.

08.01.2022 Hello, Spring. So very wonderful to see you again Wooden bees captured by @hued.ca

06.01.2022 As adults we can get stuck under limiting beliefs that tell us Im not creative. I wholeheartedly believe we all have creative abilities. These will look different for all of us and likely only present themselves when we feel in alignment or in flow with our lives and values. To prove that very point, that creativity comes in many forms and through many outlets, comment below and let me know what creativity looks like for YOU? a moment captured in the midst of creative expression featuring our 100% plastic free glitter, by @jennaduxbury_
