The next thing
to try.

Activity ideas chosen for each child by age, plane, and what they have been drawn to recently. A curated library tuned for UK home-ed families, with personalisation that quiets down when nothing fits.

tuned to your week, never pushy

Following the child

Picked for what they're drawn to, not what's missing.

Suggestions follow what your child is actively drawn to rather than chase curriculum gaps. If a child has been steady on practical-life work, we lean into practical-life suggestions, not language drill, even if language is the paler area on the coverage map.

When you do want to fill a gap, the coverage map is one path in. It shows you which areas are paler, and the Browse and Personalised tabs let you find ideas that fit those areas. Neither view pushes the other.

Browse the library

Filter by season, find what fits the week.

The Browse tab is the full library. Filter by Montessori plane, filter by season, Ramadan, Eid, Harvest, Bonfire Night, Christmas, and find something that fits the time of year you are in. UK seasons specifically, so the festivals and the autumn-term rhythm match the year your family is living in.

Tap the heart icon on any activity to keep it in Favourites. Come back when you are looking for something you already know works for your family, instead of digging through the library every time.

A gentle prompt

When the reading log goes quiet.

When the reading log has been quiet for a while, a gentle prompt at the top of the page points you to community Book Ideas. There are no streaks here, just somewhere warm to start when nobody can decide what to read next.

In the app

How it sits inside Willowfolio.

Four small surfaces. Each is a different way to find the next activity, the next book, or the next place to start.

Common questions

The things families ask first.

How does the personalisation work?
The personalisation picks from a curated library based on each child's age, plane, and what they have been drawn to recently. It is a quiet rules-based shortlist tuned for UK home-ed families, not a notification-driven feed. The heart icon and the dismiss button shape what you see next.
What if my child is not Montessori-shaped?
Filter by season instead of by plane and the suggestions still work. The seasonal browse is approach-agnostic, the festivals are the festivals. Charlotte Mason, classical, eclectic, and unschooling families use the suggestions library the same way Montessori families do.
Will I get notifications when there are new suggestions?
No. There are no notifications, no email summaries unless you turn one on, no push from the app to your phone. The suggestions tab is there when you visit it, quiet when you do not.
