Jeff Colonel | Child-First Learning

My four-year-old son and I play old games, make new ones, build things with technology, create with AI, tell stories, and follow our curiosity wherever it leads.

I’m Jeff—a teacher, father, and author of On Your Side. After sixteen years in classrooms, I’m exploring what learning can become when a child is having too much fun to stop. Alongside our projects, I talk directly about childhood, education, creativity, technology, and the systems built around children.
