Mariah Bruehl is an educator at heart. After receiving her master’s degree in elementary education from Bank Street College, she taught at the Dalton School in New York. She then worked as the associate director of the Ross Lower School in Bridgehampton, New York.

After years of working in the field of education, Mariah decided to bring her knowledge and experience online through the creation of the award-winning Web site Playful Learning, which was created to help parents support their children’s learning and development.

In addition to the learning experiences she offers her readers, she brings her love of teaching and learning to parents, teachers and children through interactive, hands-on e-courses, where she is able to connect with participants in supportive online communities.

You can find more engaging learning experiences in her book, Playful Learning: Develop Your Child’s Sense of Joy and Wonder.
