Calling all curious minds!
Who are eclectic kids? Kids (of all ages) who like to
- explore
- ask questions
- think outside of the box
- dance to their own drummer
Eclectic learning is an organic form of discovery where you get to choose your own path and speed while blending your topics and ideas. On this page you’ll find a few creative ways that use this style of learning: check out the Little Green Hill Packets below or keep scrolling to find a DIY reading club plus a bunch of sample activities adapted from Extraschooling books.
