What does a dog and a baby have to do with teaching a class? Well, as it turns out, a lot. I just found out about this awesome non-profit group from Canada called Roots of Empathy. Their goal is to …
I’ve talked about this time and time before but our education system is really outdated. So when I found this article about the problems our children face in our education system when it comes to mathematics, I was really happy …

Welcome fellow parent! My name is Melissa Greczy. Entrepreneur from the age of 16, I have always lived a little outside the box. Luckily that life includes 2 amazing daughters, Maddy, who is 11, and Sydney, who is 9 years old, a 10 acre farm, 50 chickens, a few turkeys and a dairy cow named Joy :)
When I''m not playing farmer, I get to live out my mission of changing the world, one child at a time. My passion is learning, researching and spreading knowledge on parenting and early childhood education.
I’ve read every possible book about parenting and early childhood development I could get my hands on! My kids haven’t had the most conventional childhood either, as one day they are cleaning out the chicken coop and the next day I am dragging them on one of my adventures to the other side of the world :)
