Welcome to the Fort!
Hi there! I’m Kathryn Grady, mother of three, a former kindergarten teacher, one-time wedding blogger, and an old-fashioned bookworm who occasionally eats pie for breakfast. Fort Bramble is for grown-ups who want the important work of raising small humans to feel less like work and more like play.
What can you expect from this newsletter? The weekly newsletter is where I’ll be sharing things like:
Tips and tricks for making life with small humans easier and more fun.
Thoughts about parenting.
Cool things happening in the world of early childhood education.
Updates from the Grady Family Circus.
Books, songs, and activities that are bringing my family joy.
And awesomely interesting things that made me laugh or think or both.
Maybe some recipes, too.
What are the Discovery and Play Guides? These are themed, printable guides that give you tons of ideas for learning and playing alongside your kids - the world is wide and full of wonder! Let’s dig into it together!
What’s different about a paid subscription? If you enjoy what I write and share, consider supporting my work and helping to keep this content ad-free. When you upgrade to paid, you’ll gain access to the entire archives of weekend newsletters and themed Discovery and Play Guides (they’re awesome).
Thank you for reading - I’m so glad you’re here!
