Noodles in the Sandbox

Noodles in the Sandbox is a playful yet thought-provoking exploration of alternative education, designed for parents who have stepped away from traditional public schools and are seeking the best path for their children. Hosted by experienced educators who lead Acton Academy Northwest Austin (Texas). Together we dive into early education tools, parenting strategies, and  focus on cultivating 21st-century skills in a learner-driven environment. 

In each episode, we embrace curiosity, lifelong learning, and the Hero's Journey. Expect casual, irreverent conversations that challenge conventional thinking—without being prescriptive. Whether you’re in the thick of decision-making or already on an alternative path, join us weekly for insights, practical life hacks, and the big questions that drive modern education.
