    Preface

    As I write this, for the first time in history, schools and childcare settings in countries across the world have been closed to the majority of children, with no set date to reopen; everyone has been instructed to stay home due to the COVID-19 virus.

    This is a worrying time for families, who find themselves juggling childcare and working from home, alongside reduced income and job losses, and the anxiety and health concerns that come with a global pandemic. Millions of parents have suddenly found themselves in the position of effectively having to home educate their children, without any of the resources or research that families who ordinarily homeschool would have access to. And even families who usually homeschool are finding themselves doing so without the groups, classes, museums, parks, and public libraries that form a part of their daily lives.
