Love this. I am a retired elementary school teacher. Halfway through a 27 year teaching career, I stumbled into early learning instruction (kindergarten) and had this balance of play and work in my job. I am so grateful for it. Interestingly enough, I evolved a loose system of organization that worked for me (undiagnosed ADHD), and my students. I am now trying to recreate something similar and organic in my retirement. Challenging, but have grandchildren to interact with, so I am lucky there. Enjoying your substack work!!
