These siblings are the ultimate curiosity champions. They find magic in a wind-up toy or a shipwreck—no screens required. Their favorite phrase? “Chitty, start her up!” It’s a call to action for wonder.
Tip for modern life: Schedule a “Jeremy & Jemima hour” once a week. Go outside with zero agenda. Look for things that gleam—a feather, a puddle reflecting the sky. Notice the small, weird details.
Fun fact: The actors who played Jemima and Jeremy (Heather Ripley and Adrian Hall) were virtually unknown kids from local London schools. Sometimes, the best casting is just authentic energy.
