Mrs Murphy’s Spring Veggie Frittata Muffins are a simple, nourishing way to celebrate the shift towards lighter days and fresh flavours. Packed with seasonal vegetables and baked into perfectly portioned muffins, they are ideal for picnics or a quick family supper.
Cooking together builds far more than practical skills. It strengthens communication, independence and a sense of contribution within the family.
Why switching to active learning is hard — and worth it!

Results from our #RCT of Jigsaw #ActiveLearning vs. traditional lectures for teaching #anatomy and #physiology:
Both methods improved student knowledge, but no evidence of *differences* in learning between the two methods (immediately or after three months). However, many more students in the ‘traditional teaching’ group than in the Jigsaw group *preferred* their assigned teaching method over others (78% vs. 38%).
National Storytelling Week reminds us that stories don’t only live in books 📚✨
With a light, a screen, and a little imagination, shadow puppets bring stories to life in a whole new way- through movement, voices, problem-solving and creativity. Children become the storytellers, the characters, and the directors all at once.
This is a great activity to try at home!

Do beats Show and Tell. Multi-sensory environments improve our ability to learn, requiring us to be active participants in our learning.

Destroy the conference to save it! If we try to save conferences by keeping them the way they've always been, we'll destroy them.

🧺 Try at Home! 🧦
Pegging up laundry (even tiny dolls' clothes!) is a wonderful way for children to help out at home.
This simple, practical task supports fine motor skills, hand strength, and hand-eye coordination, while also building confidence, independence, and a sense of responsibility. When children feel involved in real-life routines, they learn that their contributions matter.
