A place for thoughts, questions and reflections from Tom Shea — the Imaginator.

Drawing on more than 40 years of experience in child development and early years education, Tom shares the ideas, observations and experiences that continue to shape his thinking.

From the philosophy behind beHulda to the extraordinary ways children encounter the world around them, this is a space for curiosity, reflection and sometimes challenging the way we think about childhood.

You'll also find news from beHulda, stories from our fair-trade partners in Nepal, new arrivals and glimpses into the people and processes behind our offerings.

Not always answers. Often more questions. Always something to think about.
