About


“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.” -Fred Rogers

Welcome to The Sweet Life (a play on words from our name, Zuckero, which means “sugar” in Sicilian), my WordPress blog about our family’s adventures in homeschooling, travel, cooking, holistic health and play! This page serves as a hub/meeting space for all my fellow mamas, dadas, home educators, holistic health enthusiasts, foodies, travelers, and family fun seekers!

We are thankful of the life we know we are privileged enough to get to live as our little one grows by our sides each and every day. Max, you are the light of our lives and our raison d’etre, and we wouldn’t dare miss a second of yours!

Come with us as we delve deep into all things family, fun, food, and learning! Tout de suite!
