Closing One Chapter, Stepping Into the Next

As the year comes to a close, we’ve been reflecting on everything it held.

The ideas we explored, the community moments we shared, the things that worked beautifully, and the things that challenged us deeply.

This year, we tried to build something meaningful.

A different way of learning.

A more hands-on, real-life approach to education and community.

A space shaped by curiosity, creativity, and connection.

Not all of it unfolded as we hoped, but all of it taught us something important.

As a family, we’re stepping into the new year with more clarity about what we want for our child and the kind of environment he needs to thrive.

We care deeply about learning that prepares children for the world they’re growing into - not through distraction or surface-level activities, but through meaningful experiences, responsibility, creativity, and real connection.

In the year ahead, our focus is on:

• continuing to develop values-led learning experiences
• nurturing small, intentional community where it feels right
• creating resources that support families who are thinking deeply about education and life

We do hope to welcome families who feel aligned with this vision - families who want to participate, contribute ideas, and build something together rather than simply attend.

We’ll also be launching a comprehensive guidebook for worldschooling and homeschooling families coming to Hoi An - bringing together our lived experience, insights, and reflections from over a decade here.

It’s intended as a supportive, honest resource for families navigating similar paths.

To everyone who supported us this year - thank you. Truly.

Your encouragement meant more than you know.

Here’s to the year ahead - to clarity, alignment, and building lives that reflect what we value most.

Happy New Year ❤️

This was the rhythm this morning.

Word games, Scrabble, marble runs, books on the table, kids choosing where to focus and how long to stay.

At Tay Tai, we care a lot about creating spaces where learning feels calm, social, and human.

Where literacy grows through play, logic through building, and confidence through being part of a small group - not through pressure or performance.

Not every child thrives in loud, fast, or highly structured environments.

Many learn best when they’re given time, real materials, and the freedom to engage at their own pace.

This is the kind of learning culture we’re intentionally building.

These moments might look simple, but they’re doing important work.

Children thinking together, problem-solving, reading for pleasure, and finding ease in learning alongside others.

If this kind of environment resonates with your family - gentle, hands-on, community-led - you’re very welcome to connect with us and see what’s unfolding.

This isn’t a polished post. It’s an honest one.

Tay Tai is at its quietest point ever.

Participation is low.

Some weeks it feels like we’re starting from zero again.

And while that has been hard, it has also brought one very big truth to the surface.

We don’t want a busy “hub.”

We want a community.

A place where families know each other, support each other, share ideas, and help create experiences together.

A place where our son - and your kids - can form real friendships, not just temporary interactions.

A place where learning comes from life, connection, creativity, and curiosity, not from scheduled entertainment.

Right now, we don’t have that community.

We are looking for the families who want to build it with us.

We’re calling in parents who want to contribute, collaborate, suggest activities, help out, and be part of something that grows slowly and intentionally.

We’re looking for kids who want to explore together, create together, and become part of a small circle that truly feels like home.

If you're a family living here or coming for a longer stay…

If you’re craving connection, belonging, shared learning, and a community where your presence actually matters…

You might be exactly who we’re searching for.

Send us a message, introduce your family, and come help us shape what Tay Tai becomes next.

Community doesn’t appear by magic - it grows when the right people choose to show up.

And this is why we keep pushing forward with the vision for Tay Tai…

Some days the work is messy.

Some weeks we’re rebuilding from the ground up. And sometimes, like this week, you see a spark catch fire in a child, and you remember exactly why Tay Tai exists.

Last week in our entrepreneurship sessions, the kids came up with business ideas, made their products, priced them, and in some cases… actually started selling.

One of those kids has been talking about her idea ever since. Asking questions. Planning next steps. Already dreaming bigger.

That’s the magic we protect here.

Tay Tai isn’t about every child loving every activity.

It’s about giving them the freedom to try things… to bump into something unexpected… to discover who they are through real experiences, not worksheets.

When kids get that freedom, you can literally watch their confidence take its first breath.

And this is the heartbeat of the community we’re rebuilding.

Not a passive place where families simply “attend things.”

But a living, breathing space shaped with the families who show up.

People who want to contribute, support, share the load, and say,
“I’ll take the drop-off this week—you take the next.”

A space where kids feel safe to experiment.

Where parents feel held instead of judged.

Where we all want to see every child - not just our own - thrive.

We know there’s been noise. Gossip. Assumptions.
It happens in every community.

But here, we choose to stay focused on the real stories.

The sparks, the friendships, the creativity, the moments like this one that show us the kids are growing because of the connections they’re making here.

Tay Tai is evolving. Listening. Watching what the kids need.

And we’re building a community for families who feel the same.

Families who want more than activities…
Families who want a place where their children can discover their fire.

If that’s you, our doors are open.
And we’d love to welcome you in.

Grades tell us what a child can remember.

But real life reveals who they’re becoming.

And the skills our kids will actually need in the future aren’t found on a test paper.

They’re found in the way they solve problems, relate to others, handle uncertainty, create possibilities, and think for themselves.

Skills built through:
– shared adventures
– real conversations
– navigating differences
– hands-on challenges
– curiosity-led play
– the wider world as their classroom

This is the heart of Tay Tai.

Not a physical space - a way of raising children who grow through life, not around it.

We’re rebuilding our community on purpose.

Smaller, wiser, more intentional, and filled with families who care about raising capable, grounded, empathetic humans - not perfect students.

If this speaks to you, then you’re already aligned with what Tay Tai stands for.

Learning doesn’t start when a child sits at a desk.

It starts the moment they step into the world.

At Tay Tai, this has always been our truth - and it’s even more powerful now.

Real learning doesn’t live inside four walls or in a static location.

It lives in curious hands, thoughtful questions, shared moments, and the confidence that grows when kids explore the world around them.

Math shows up in measuring ingredients for lunch.
Science reveals itself through play, tinkering, and nature.

Language grows through friendships, conversations, and community.

And the most important skills - empathy, creativity, resilience, collaboration - are built in real life, not on paper.

This is the heart of the Tay Tai movement.

Families who choose connection over convention.
Curiosity over curriculum.

And community over going it alone.

We’re rebuilding intentionally - a small circle of aligned families who want to raise their children with freedom, joy, and a whole lot of real-world learning.

If your family lives or travels this way…
you already belong with us.

These are the roots of Tay Tai.

Our 5 pillars, the values that have carried us through every version of this community.

Whether we’re gathering in a shared space, wandering through Hoi An together, meeting for a beach play, or rebuilding something new from the ground up, these pillars stay the same.

🌱 Curiosity - following wonder wherever it leads
🎨 Creativity - making, building, expressing
🤝 Connection - learning through people, place, and purpose
🧡 Courage - trying, failing, trying again
🏡 Community - growing side-by-side across ages and backgrounds

As we begin again with a smaller, more aligned circle of families, we’re choosing depth over numbers, intention over noise, and community over convenience.

These pillars help us stay centred as we rebuild something real - a movement for families who believe in hands-on learning, shared responsibility, and raising children with the world, not away from it.

Which of these speaks to your family right now?

Drop a 🌿 below — we’d love to hear.

If you’re a worldschooling, homeschooling, or travelling family looking for a smaller, more intentional community built on these values, we’d love to connect.

We’ve made a big change.

After 2 incredible years of building and running Tay Tai as a physical hub, we’ve chosen to step away from the space and return to the heart of what this community was always meant to be.

Tay Tai was never about buildings or programs.

It was about people.

Families learning through life together, kids of all ages exploring side-by-side, and parents building genuine community.

Over time, we realised that bigger didn’t mean better.

The wider Hoi An worldschooling scene has become huge, but not always aligned in vision or values.

We wanted something smaller, more intentional, more human.

So we’re starting again .

Slowly and purposefully.

Tay Tai will continue as a movement for families who value curiosity, connection, and creativity.

Who believe learning happens everywhere, and who want to raise their children in community, not competition.

We’re keeping our circle small so we can truly know one another, support one another, and co-create experiences that matter.

🌱 This next chapter is about real-life learning, shared responsibility, and genuine friendship.

If you’re a worldschooling, homeschooling, or travelling family looking for a grounded, heart-led community - one that’s rebuilding from the roots - we’d love to connect.

DM us to learn more about the new Tay Tai and how to be part of this next chapter.
