My name is Dalene Joubert, a professional occupational therapist who enjoys the company of children… especially from newborns to about 10 years old.

My joy is helping children achieve and develop their natural abilities, skills and full potential. This is my passion, what I studied and what I have been doing my whole working life. And will hopefully do for years to come!

Of course things get hectic and crazy sometimes, but hey, I simply love kid honesty, their fun and the hilarious things they say.

So that's why I do exiting and fun things to help the little ones. It encourages and teaches them and they hardly ever think of it as "learning". In fact, many kids simply say they're coming to play!

Make no mistake, I definitely do not claim to know everything. That is simply impossible. But over the years I have tried and learned quite a few things that work. And some that don't. These are the kind of things I share with you here.

Some of the ideas and opinions you may find useful. Others you may already know.

Either way, one thing I do know… I can still learn a lot from others. That's why I would really like to hear from you. Please let me know when you have a great idea, tip or simply a comment or suggestion.

But, if you'd like to visit or come see me personally, you can reach me here:

All the best and may your child have a great future,

Dalene Joubert
