The Guided Path
Want to go through everything in a thoughtful order? Follow this sequence. Each item builds naturally on the last. Most of it can be read or played independently — the optional activities are best done with a parent or helper since they require supplies. Patreon members get access to the full path; paperback editions are noted where available.
