What’s inside
A real plan — not another pile of saved ideas.
- A monthly play-based plan — intentional, hands-on activities, with a fresh theme as your toddler grows.
- A short parent masterclass each month, so you know what your child is learning and why.
- Screen-free play that builds language, independence, motor skills, and pretend play — no worksheets, no pressure.
- Low prep, simple supplies — most activities use things you already have, and anything extra is basic and inexpensive.
- A simple foundation training to set up before Month 1 — so it feels easy from day one.
Why this one’s different
Hi, I’m Alexa.
A play-based early childhood coach with 15+ years teaching how toddlers actually learn — featured on PBS Kids, and mom to two boys.
I built this curriculum the way I built my classes: tested with real toddlers, in real homes, by a mom who needed it to work on a tired Tuesday. It isn’t a Pinterest board you’ll never finish. It’s a plan.
When you’re ready for the whole year
The free plan is just the beginning.
This free curriculum isn’t a watered-down sample — it’s a real taste of the exact system I teach. The same play-based approach, the same monthly rhythm.
When you find yourself wanting more than the seasonal months, that’s exactly what My First School is: the full year, all 12 themed volumes, sequenced so you always know what comes next. It just keeps going where the free one stops.
You don’t need a different plan. You need the rest of this one.

Questions, answered
Is it really free?
Completely free — always. Pick your child’s age above and you’ll go straight to that age’s play-based curriculum. No card, no trial.
What age is it for?
Pick your child’s age above. There’s a version built for 1, 2, and 3 year olds, each with age-right activities and milestones.
Do I need special supplies?
A few. Most activities use everyday items from your kitchen and toy bin. Each month’s plan lists the handful of extras you’ll want, so you can gather them once and be set.
Is it actually play-based?
Every activity is play first. Your toddler thinks it’s fun; the learning — language, motor skills, early math — rides along underneath.
What if I want the whole year?
The free curriculum is a monthly, seasonal plan. When you’re ready for a full sequenced year, My First School picks up where it leaves off — all 12 volumes, a one-time $97 per level.
