When we let children touch, taste, and try, they learn autonomy and connection in equal measure.
Healthy food thrives in creativity and shared experience. This week, turn your kitchen into a classroom.

Schools were built for the Industrial Age. Children are growing up in the Digital Age.
The system still prizes compliance over curiosity — yet the world demands flexibility, empathy, and critical thinking.

Only 37% of Australians believe school prepares children for real life (Mitchell Institute, 2024). It’s time to ask: what is education for?

At Inform Me, we believe learning should build self-trust, agency, and wisdom — not just test scores.

🥗 What’s going on in the US when it comes to food & Nutrition - see the latest breaking news announcement here.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has announced that the US will release updated federal dietary guidelines in December, intended to reshape what Americans eat, including the food served to children and in the military. 

Here are three key points to know:
1. The guidelines won’t just change recommendations — they will influence what institutions serve (schools, military) and what the public view as normal.

2. One major target: ultra-processed foods. These are already linked to chronic illness and poor health outcomes.

3. For Australia — this serves as a case study. It tells us healthy food policy isn’t just about “what you should eat” — it’s about what is offered to our children and in our public settings.

✅ What can you do?
• Ask: What are our national guidelines saying now — and when were they last updated?

• Check what is being served in your community (school canteen, hospital, public institution) — and ask: Does it reflect whole-foods and children’s health?

• Educate: Knowing the difference between ‘processed convenience’ vs ‘real, whole food’.

Stay tuned for more content on how we can make sure nutrition policy works for people — not the other way around.

Every child has a unique learning fingerprint.
Some see it.
Some hear it.
Some touch it.
Some write it.
Most need a mix.
When classrooms rely on one mode (often text + talk), others get left behind.
True education happens where these styles overlap and curiosity meets connection.

The U.S. has officially removed mercury (in the form of thimerosal) from all vaccines — a move welcomed by many health advocates.

Mercury is a heavy metal that, in certain forms and doses, can affect the nervous system. While it was once used as a preservative in multi-dose vaccine vials, most high-income countries have already reduced or phased it out.

Australia’s TGA maintains that vaccines on the National Immunisation Program no longer contain mercury, but it’s still important for families to understand where it was used, why it was used, and how policies differ globally.

Staying informed means asking good questions — not just following the crowd.

Fermentation is one of the oldest health practices — and one of the simplest to reclaim.

A 2021 Stanford study found that eating fermented foods daily increases gut microbial diversity and lowers inflammation within weeks.

Why it matters:
• Your gut houses 70% of your immune system.
• Microbial balance supports digestion, focus, and even mood.
• You can start small — add sauerkraut to lunch, drink kefir, try miso soup.
Ancient wisdom, modern science — same story: real food heals.

Water is life — but have you ever stopped to think about what’s really coming through your taps?

Even treated water can collect rust, lead, and other contaminants as it travels through old plumbing systems. What looks clean isn’t always pure.

Not every child thrives in a mainstream classroom — and that’s okay.

Every learner is different. Some need a little extra time, a different approach, or just the right tools to unlock their confidence. 💛

That’s why we love what is doing — creating practical, evidence-based resources that help children learn in ways that truly suit them.

One of our favourites? 🐇 Their Rabbit Reading Resource — a free, engaging tool designed to help kids read with more accuracy and build confidence step by step.

✨ If your child is finding reading tricky, this is a beautiful place to start.

Blue light and stimulation from screens delay melatonin release, making it harder for children to fall — and stay — asleep.
📊 Research in Pediatrics (2019) found that even modest screen use before bedtime reduces sleep duration by about an hour.
Protecting sleep is one of the simplest ways to protect children’s health, learning, and resilience.

Critical thinking is more than an academic skill — it’s protection in a noisy world.
Children who learn to:
1️⃣ Question the source
2️⃣ Look for evidence
3️⃣ Spot bias
…grow into resilient thinkers who can tell truth from noise.

Research shows that testing claims against evidence is the core of critical thinking (EdWeek, 2021).

Even young learners can begin applying these tools to everyday information.
