Meet Tania
Inspiring Young Minds with Educational Activity Books and Unique but Practical Journals!
Welcome to Tansley Express, the official bookstore of author and educator Tania Jacobs. My passion is creating children's activity books and journals that are not only fun but also carefully designed to help kids learn, grow, and get school-ready, especially those who learn differently.
Meet the Author & Educator
I'm Tania Jacobs, a dedicated educator with a BA degree and a Post Graduate Higher Diploma in Education (PGDHE), and over 15 years of teaching experience across both brick-and-mortar classrooms and online learning environments.
But my deepest motivation is personal. My daughter is ADHD and dyslexic, and watching her struggle in a system that wasn't designed for the way she learns broke my heart — and lit a fire in me. I realised she wasn't alone. There were so many children just like her, bright and capable, but needing a different path to learning. That realisation gave birth to Tansley Express, a place where every child can learn in their own way, at their own pace, without feeling left behind.
Every book I create is shaped by that mission: to make learning accessible, enjoyable, and empowering for all children.
Our Kids' Activity Books
- Educational Activity Books – Fun puzzles, colouring activities, and learning games that build essential early skills.
- Skill-Building Workbooks – Designed to prepare children for school while keeping learning enjoyable.
- Engaging Learning Tools – Bright, playful, and interactive activities that children love.
Journals, Trackers & Planners for Teens & Adults
For older kids, teens, and adults, I also create a range of practical journals and trackers designed to bring more intention and organisation into everyday life:
- Budget Trackers – Practical tools to help adults take control of their finances, track spending, and plan with confidence.
- Mindfulness & Self-Expression Journals – Encouraging reflection, gratitude, and personal growth.
- Goal-Setting Planners – Helping teens and adults set meaningful goals and stay on track.
Whether you're working on your finances or your mindset, there's a Tansley Express journal for you.
