We heard your requests! We are so excited to present to you The Happy Learners’ Club - Big Kids’ Club for our kindergarteners and primary school children between 6 to 8 years old.

Because FUN and HANDS-ON learning doesn’t need to stop once our children start formal education.

How does learning look like for our big kids? 

  • Our big kids have a huge appetite for information on how everything in the world came to be.  
  • They are constantly constructing and processing ideas and concepts to make sense of the world around them.

How can we support our big kids’ learning?

  • Give them time and space to freely explore and deeply pursue any interests 
  • Offer resources that fuel their curiosity and expand their understanding of the world.
  • Stimulate their inquisitive minds with engaging activities 
  • Be their cheerleader and support them as they embark on this exciting journey of discovery

Hello there, I’m Fynn. I am a former Math and Science Secondary School teacher from Singapore, an author and mother of three. Putting together my years of experience of:

  • teaching Math and Science in secondary schools in Singapore and in an IB college in Sweden, 
  •  volunteering in play-based preschools in California and  
  • creating over thousands of learning activities over at Happy Tot Shelf,

I created The Happy Learners’ Club in 2021 and over the 2 years, we have supported over 2500 families in their home learning journey.  

Parents have shared with me many benefits from being in The Happy Learners’ Club:

  • Siblings find ways to teach and learn together 
  • Less screen time and more quality family time
  • Lasting, memorable moments of joyful learning at home.

And now we are extending all the fun learning in The Happy Learners’ Club to our big kids!

Find everything you need to create fun-filled home learning experiences for your big kids!

We joined THLC when the magic all first started and my little was 4 years old. This program was so much fun and he learned so much, but eventually life got in the way (big move from Maui to Costa Rica!!!) and, upon returning to our routine, we found he had outgrown a lot of the activities. So imagine our delight to see there was a Big Kids' Club!!! It’s wonderful to be back!

 The activities, themes, and how each are presented and taught are interesting, challenging, and age appropriate. 

I have fun preparing the activities, he has fun doing them, he clearly is learning so much, and I have a great time being in awe of his development and progress. I can’t speak highly enough of this program and I tell everyone I know about it!

Anna Dee-O'Rourke
Mum of 1 (6yo)

We love that each month’s theme contains a huge variety of different activities. Some are easy for the kids to complete with minimal help from adults so I will give those to my daughter when I’m busy with work. The ones that require more assistance, I will keep for when I’m able to give her my full attention. They make for some really wonderful parent-child bonding time.  

There’s so much value in these thematic activities! We learn so much new information each month. My husband, who cycles for leisure, was pleasantly surprised when our daughter talked to him about the Tour de France because she learnt about it in the Transportation theme!

Yong Qiao Qing
Mum of 1 (7yo)

We have been with THLC for 2 years plus and now upgrade to Big Kids’ Club (BKC).

All the activities in BKC are much more informative and even we adults learnt so much along the way. BKC gives my kids opportunities to learn more knowledge, which they can’t learn at school. 

My girl develops a sense of curiosity with every theme. She thinks, plays, explores, experiments and discovers.

BKC really encourages my kids’ spirit of wonderment and sparks the joy of learning! Highly recommend to parents who have 6yo and above kids at home.

You’ve got questions, I’ve got answers.

The activities inside THLC - Big Kids Club are designed for children between 6 to 8 years old.

The activities are categorized into two age groups: Kindergarteners (6 years old) and Primary Schoolers (7 to 8 years old). Most activities are designed for BOTH Kindergarteners and Primary Schoolers. I have included instructions in the Activity Guide to adapt the activities for the two age groups.  

NOTE: The recommended ages are a guide for parents. Children learn at different paces so you should choose activities that are best suited for your children’s ability and skill level. If your 6-year-old is particularly interested in spelling and could spell simple words, you can further challenge your child with the literacy activities from the 7 to 8-year-olds’ section. Or if your 7 or 8-year-old wants to take it slow in her addition and subtraction, you can try an easier numeracy activity from the 6-year-old section.  

There are 15 activities in each Discovery Pack.

 We have lesser activities in the Big Kids' Club as compared to the Junior Club (for 2 to 5-year-olds). That is because the activities for our big kids dive deeper into concepts and skills and take a longer time to complete than those for younger toddlers and preschoolers.

(If you are looking for activities for the younger children between 2 to 5 years old, head over to THLC Junior Club.

Every learning activity is intentionally designed to encourage meaningful active learning, develop academic skills and concepts and spark your children’s curiosity about the world. The activities tie the academic skills and concepts the children learn in school to the real world and help them see the meaningful application of Literacy, Numeracy and Science skills and concepts.

These activities are also easy to set up and require little prep time.

Try two of our activities here: 1) Monotremes and 2) Space Junk Compound Words.

When designing the activities, we take into consideration the academic skills covered in the Kindergarten, Primary 1 and Primary 2 curriculums from Ministry of Education Singapore. The 15 themed activities are focused on one or more of the following six Learning Areas: Language and Literacy, Numeracy, Motor Skills, Discovery of the World, Arts and Sensory Experiences and Social and Emotional Development.

*Big Kids' Club is designed to be a 2 years program and your membership (both monthly and annual), will automatically end after 2 years. 

Yes, you can! Many members do that to try the program for a month or two, then upgrade to yearly plan when they see that THLC is a good fit. Simply write to us at hello@happytotshelf.com and we will send you the instructions to upgrade to the annual plan.

You can join again later, but you will pay the monthly/annual fee that is in place at the time of sign up. 

While the internet can be helpful for getting inspiration, it can also be a huge time sink. Join this community and have the best quality learning activities and resources curated and sent to you every month.
No more wasting time scrolling through Pinterest or Google for another activity.  
No more guessing if the activities are suitable for your children.  

We are proud of the theme-based learning printables we designed that encourage meaningful active learning, develop academic skills and concepts and spark your children’s curiosity about the world. We are confident you cannot find these printables anywhere on the internet!

YES! It has always been my goal to help families foster positive sibling relationships through learning together.

As mentioned above, most activities are designed for 6 to 8 years old, with slight adaptations for different ages.

If you have younger children between 2 to 5 years old, you can consider joining THLC Junior Club too! Big Kids’ Club and Junior Club share the same theme each month so families with children between 2 to 8 years old can explore the same theme together with the activities that are pitched to different ages. 

While the literacy and numeracy skills and concepts may be too simple, your tween may still enjoy learning fun facts about the world, the open-ended activities and fun games in the Discovery Pack.

I recommend that you sign up for a monthly plan and have your tween try the activities. 

I am fully aware how time is a scarce resource for parents so everything in The Happy Learners’ Club is made for the busy parent in mind.  All my resources are specially designed to engage your big kids while taking the overwhelm out of busy parents.

Activities in the Big Kids’ Club are also designed to encourage independent learning and discovery so busy parents can easily use these activities to keep their children busy and happy. 

The activities for Big Kids dive deeper into the concepts and skills and most of them take around 10 to 20 minutes to complete.

I recommend doing the low prep activities during the weekdays after school and the high prep activities during the weekends.

You will have access to the members’ resources as long as your membership is active.

Each Discovery Pack will stay in the member’s portal for a month, and will be replaced when a new Discovery Pack is released. You can download the Discovery Pack anytime while they are active in the member’s portal.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Past Discovery Packs are not available anymore.

Check out the exciting themes that are happening in the coming months!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Past Discovery Packs are not available anymore.

Every THLC membership entitles one family only to access and use the resources. The membership and resources cannot be shared by multiple families nor with students/teachers in your preschool.  

The Big Kids’ Club thematic activities are low prep yet high on fun!

I love that it is easy to implement. My kids aged 6 & 8 enjoy the bite-size activities which are in a fun format with interesting facts to learn.

The book list also helps to extend our learning as a family! 

Cheryl Chen
Mum of 2 (6yo and 8yo)

 I was one of the pioneers who started on this amazing journey when my daughter was 4 years old.

The bite-sized activities are easy and we can choose from the variety of worksheets that Fynn prepares.

Through these activities, we share a good time bonding and increasing our General Knowledge! 

Kalarani Jenessa Justin
Mum of 2 (5yo and 3yo) 

I joined the JKC since 2021 and my both kids benefitted so much from the programme.

I am a strong believer in gamified learning, making learning fun will result in children having positive disposition learnings. With all the fun and excellent experiences, we signed up for BKC without hesitation!

I took this opportunity to bond with my kids while they learn. 

Daphne Ng
Mum of 2 (5yo and 7yo)
