Welcome to Natural Parent Guide

March 23, 2017 by L. E. Mastilock 3 Comments

You may have noticed some changes around here and on my social media accounts. I have changed the name from Sandy Toes Creations to:

Natural Parent Guide

Natural Parent Guide is the place for encouragement in gentle parenting, natural learning kids, and green living | homeschool | unschooling | attachment parenting | alternative education

Why did I feel the need for change?

Over the past few years the topics that I care most about have become clear and I have narrowed down what I post to just these things.

The topics I love to write about are:

  • Natural Parenting
  • Alternative Education
  • Green Living

I encourage moms to live a natural, healthy lifestyle, to allow their children freedom to play, create, and learn at their own pace, and to experience the joy (yes, there is struggle and frustration, too) of relaxed homeschooling or unschooling. I encourage lots of nature and art as well as playful learning activities. I share green living tips and only healthy, whole food recipes.

I felt my old name was not at all clear on what I am all about.

My new name is instantly clear, don’t you think? Let me know what you really think about it in comments!

Stay in-touch & get encouraged:

I have created a new Facebook page for Natural Parent Guide. Please go give it a like and share it with your friends!

One more very important thing for me, as a woman and a mom, has been community. We should never feel alone in this parenting adventure. I know I have and as many people as there are, it’s so unnecessary!

Find Your Community

A great place to find like minded moms, share ideas, ask questions, get support and connect with your community is my new Facebook group: Natural Learners.

Natural Learners Facebook Group

Just ask to join! It’s a closed group so you can feel safe in open discussion there. I really hope you will join and bring your knowledge and encouragement to share!

    I love your new name. It’s very clear. Plus anything that says “guide” always stands out to me as something helpful.
