We reached 4K followers overnight 🥹 so now seems like a good time for a re-introduction!
I’m Jessica, the founder of The Garden Museum~ welcome to my adventure!
As a mama of 2 with a flair for creative side quests, finding excuses to be outside, and daydreaming, I found myself building this up before I even knew what it was. I understood early on that parenting outside IS easier for all of us and often an instant mood booster✨ We love day trips, natural sensory play (pebbled beaches or just playing in dirt) and boy don’t get me started on the imaginary worlds my kiddos build together! 🧚
I’m a former teacher with an MA in education. I stepped out of the classroom with plans to fully commit myself to building up this dream of bringing more intentional play to my local community (& now surrounding communities), AND now to schools (yay!) which makes my teacher heart beyond happy. 🍎
My family is fully involved every step of the way, even if it brings more chaos into the house. My kiddos make the best product testers, my handy engineering husband helps visions come to life & then some. I like to say “I’m not a serious person” as I’m painting wooden peg people or testing out which car rolls down the ramp in the most “fun” way 🙃
Life is more fun with some whimsy in it. I love sharing that with you!
Thank you for being here 💛💛💛
