Approach

Play is the work. Documentation is the test.

Foiy Home encodes an evidence-led early-learning stance. The product exists so three adults with different languages can run that stance every day.

1. Relationship firstAn hour of curriculum that costs warmth is a net loss.
2. Input budget for languageTrack hours per language per speaker. Do not replace talk with drills.
3. Executive function is the curriculumSubjects are the vehicle. Plan-Do-Review, pretend play, waiting, movement.
4. Prepared environmentA shelf with few materials beats a pile of worksheets.
5. Guided playThe adult sets the invitation. The child directs the action. No worksheets before 5.
6. Dialogic everythingReading, cooking, walking — the adult talks with the child, not at the child.
7. Graded challengeResilience comes from mastery ladders and risky play, not pep talks.
8. Describe, do not evaluateDo not call the child clever. Describe the work.
9. Kindness is practisedModel it. Do not pay for it with stickers.
10. Documentation is the assessmentPhotos, quotes, and reviews. Not tests.
11. Sleep and outdoor time firstSchedule the load-bearing blocks, then fit the rest.
12. Reject hot-housingNo flashcard programmes. No right-brain training. No “baby can read”.
13. Rewrite at each birthdayThe plan for 2–3 is firm. Ages 4–6 follow your own documentation.
