#montessori #toddlers #parenting
She’s really advanced for her age! A two year old picking out her old clothes, putting dirty clothes in the hamper, and sleeping independently. Wow! That’s awesome !
I'd say shes normal and other peoples children are actually behind.
knowledgeis she’s normal for montessori, but a lot of people treat their kids as younger than they actually are. My mom dressed me literally until I was 8, but I probably could have picked my own outfits successfully when I started walking. A lot of kids could technically be a lot more independent if their parents didn’t treat them as babies for too long 😬
Some choose to keep their children dependent and some give them independence. It's all on a case by case basis really. I love this idea. I don't have children yet but am doing it later in life and let's face it, I'm not as active as I used to be.
My daughter has been doing it for a long time
@@nuclearclarity3778 So true! My brother is 12. I'm 19. And when he was younger and I told him to do a simple task like "make your own sandwich" or "clean up your toys" My mom would tell me that he's "too young for this" Which I always thought was unfair, because I had to make my sandwiches for school by myself since I was 9, I had to clean up my room, I had to help around the house... And now when I ask him to wash the dishes or god damn put his dirty clothes into the basket not leaving them on the floor he tells me "I'm too young for this!" He's 12! Can't tie his shoelaces! Mom always pick up after him. I'm just sorry for his future wife. But I guess I also live in a culture where man is superior to a woman...
I'm a stay-at-home Dad with a beautiful toddler daughter and we are getting big into the Montessori approach. Thank you for these videos!
Thats so much better than those overly fancy baby bedrooms, better for both the baby and the wallet😭✨❤️
man, I feel almost sad for some reason but also really happy. I had a really bad childhood growing up and wish my parents did this for me instead of giving me material things and ignoring me emotionally all my life 80% of the time. you're an amazing parent, I just want you to know that. I want to have kids when I'm older to give them what my parents didn't give me.
Lauren Henley me too :( :)
Me too
You should try folding her clothes using the KonMari method! She promotes including your children in the process too so they can learn and it is something you can spend time doing together! She will also be able to see what each shirt is from the top with it still looking organized! Just a tip! Never heard of Montessori before but I’m loving watching your videos since I’ve found your channel!
I actually use the KonMari method for my nightstand drawer with PJs, lol, but that’s about it. Everything else I hang because I don’t really like folding laundry. I figure when she’s a bit older, if she wants to fold them, we can. But it’s not a big deal to me, so I don’t enforce it. 🥰
To be fair, I've given up folding anything in my toddlers room because within an hour she has thrown all her clothing around her room trying everything on 😂😂😂
It would be so cute to hang colorful fabrics or ribbons on the top of her bed so she can look at them during morning or night time!
“for busy parents like you and I” I’m just 19 y/o college student vibing to your channel but that hurt 😭
well it's meant for parents... it's okay for you to watch though obviously. it's just not geared towards college students without children.
I wish my mom and my mother-in-law understood that my girls don't need so much clothes! They are sweet, but it's too much of a good thing. I do a small load of laundry every few days anyway. Less is more. 👍
This is one thing I worry about once my husband and I decide to have kids 😅. I would love to ask everyone not to buy any baby clothes for our child because I'd rather have us do that and keep it minimal
My in-laws buy our 2 sons EACH about 10 tshirts and 4 pairs of trousers every Easter religiously 😩
I find it overwhelming to organise and keep track of, nevermind my kids. I end up donating the majority of it almost immediately which I feel bad about but they would just be offended if we asked them to stop. (They really don't understand our mindset and what we feel is best for our kids a/family.) And don't even get me started on the toys 😱
I am 20 and I don't even have children and also not planning on having one soon, but this is so interesting
You were a dolphin trainer and now you’re a Montessori expert??? Love it lol
Hah! I wouldn’t go so far as to call myself an expert, just a well-educated mama... but that is certainly a compliment! Thank you! 😊
looks like I did Montesorri without knowing it, at least partially hahah Motesorri is about a lot of common sense and treating kids as someone who can actually do a lot of thing by themselves, which is true. I absolutely love the practical side of all of it! This is my style :D Wardrobe idea was AWESOME!!!! I was thinking about the artwork by my baby's bed but i'm afraid she'll tear it hahah I already let her choose what she wants to wear, well I give her options as she's only little yet (16months). There's still a lot to do around :D Love your videos !!!!
I definitely did somethings similar like 20 years ago .floor bed not folding kids cloths or even having a ton of cloths, all just smart parenting. Your a great mommy and BEAUTIFUL chchildren.
I went to an Montessori school in Sweden for about 6 years and it was terrible but it looks like you have done it the right way!
I think any method can be done badly if the staff don't care.
oh wow why was it that bad? :(
I also went to school with a girl that came from a mont. School. She joined us in 7 grade but she was so overwhelmed by everything happening in class that she had to participate in 5 grade. She was on such a low knowledge level that she finished school 3 yrs later than me even tho she was same age as me. I’d never send my child to a mont. School because of what I witnessed with her. Most mont. Kids never get a normal degree. I don’t understand how these schools think the kids will get well payed jobs or degrees.
@@jennosama3448 Jenno Sama for me and my classmates that wasn't really a problem, we had issues of teachers abusing the students and a lot of understimulating activities and so on. I would like to think that I'm quite smart, but then again it might have been different if I was older when I attended the school. It was a preschool and primary school joint together so I was still quite young. They had to follow the curriculum set up by the Swedish government and adjust it to the Montessori way of doing things, so the education was not the worst. Still, I'm with you, I would NEVER put my child in a Montessori school.
Jenno Sama because there’s more to life then getting well payed and having a degree 🤦🏼♀️
I think the only thing missing would be replacing that small mirror with a full length one so she can see her whole body!
I don't think a toddler should be even owning a mirror... i didn't even fully realize that was me in the mirror and what that meant until about 6, and then i developed some body complex not long after :(
IfYouMeetAWolf everyone develops differently I recognized myself in a mirror at 2
@@IfYouMeetAWolf that was probably my favorite part of the whole room,and their DIY cubby
I love this series. I'm not planning on ever having kids, but I am going to be an aunt some day and this information will be great to have for that. Promoting independence at as young an age as possible is great.
i went to a Montessori school until kindergarten (my mom still wishes she kept me in it k-12 but there weren’t any k-12 Montessoris around us). best choice i believe my mom has made about my education, i also had a montessori bedroom when I was younger!
Thank you for sharing your experience!! 🥰👍🏻
Wow what an amazing parenting philosophy, the room is beautiful and functional, it’s perfectly safe and organised but encourages her independence - so perfect! She is so lucky. Also must say I love your wedding/engagement ring I keep seeing it as you point, it’s stunning 😍
Hi I watched your Montessori baby room tour and I have a suggestion for the wall... you could make a Montessori floor house bed,put bumper pillows (the long roll pillows) on the sides while they’re still learning their bed boundaries so that they won’t get hurt, and you can hang your beautiful mobiles from the top so the baby can look up at them! You can also wrap lights around it for your lighting situation! And it would a fun bed idea for your toddler!
I just had the idea that you could put a sheet or something on top of the bed so it could be almost like a canopy, I always wanted one when I was a kid and I think that would be pretty cool, I loooooved the video
I love this idea. Draping some Sarah's Silks would be gorgeous!
I love this! Ive naturally always parented this way. Its what came natural to me, I breastfed, always just treated my daughter the way I would want to be treated in age appropiate ways, and kept to a simplistic setup. I hate how media and friends portray all they ways of parenting that completly go against what I naturally feel, and end up making me feel inadequate because I dont buy millions of unneccessary toys and clothes. This just reminds me to trust in myself.
Hello! I've wanted to add that cute Kylie is lucky to have such a sedate parents and her siblings are too. I believe that even adults need that kind of cozy place where they can grow quite someway. Yes I am this type of people so I loved every details in this video I can't wait to watch more of your channel. I'm a new married and I'm learning alot from you. I think you are an intresting and a great person spicificly. Such a leader! I'd say I'd support you in everyway. Thank you!
I loved the ikea hack little wardrobe! What an excellent idea! :)
I agree! I really like my daugther to be independent. I bought plastic drawers which I put in the closet and the dresses and vests I hang above. I made drawings of what s inside every drawer.
I like how you modified the bed for her rolling! I used to fall out of bed at night and hit my head on my potty. It was not fun!
Practical, simple and beautiful. She has everything she needs and is still Montessori. And I bet clean up is so much easier. Thank you for sharing
Hi! I am one of 6 and My Mama raised very much the Montessori and Waldorf Methods!! So amazing to see you wanting to help your kids be the best versions of themselves possible!!
Just found your channel and I'm in love! I've been needing help and inspiration as I start Montessori with our 2 year old. Very excited to follow along and learn from you!
I love that bed. We use it as bunk beds for my kids since they were 3 and 1 y.o. and they're still in it. They love it. Great for when your kids have to share a room :)
I’ve watch this so many times I don’t even know how many times I have watched! I love your videos!
Love your channel! I always come back for good ideas:) you have done an amazing job embracing the Montessori approach and bringing up a happy and independent little girl!!
Thank you so much! Just doing what I can to make it work for our family. 😊 Glad you enjoyed!
My son is 24 months and a roller, thank you for sharing the Ikea bed hack! That may be an idea my husband is open to (he feels like a floor bed is just so not cuddly when our toddler seems to adore his crib)
It was definitely soooo much easier for her once we switched! Good luck!
It’s so refreshing to see a toddlers room like this!! I’m moving house soon and this has given me so much motivation for my sons new room. Happy to have found your channel, thankyou for sharing 🙂
I want a bed like that for my dorm room! It looks so comfy and I could hang lights from the frame.
Literally get one, my son has one and his dad and I accidentally fall asleep in it all the time! Its comfy af and sturdy enough even for a 6ft 2, 200lb dude lol
Erica Borland you can’t really determine what your dorm set up is, unfortunately
Keeping your bed on the floor ruins the mattress over time. It can also mess with the carpet if I’m not mistaken. It doesn’t allow for airflow underneath and it traps bacteria and sweat from your body
Bees ? You’ve got bigger problems if you can manage to sweat THROUGH a mattress
@@beesquestionmark also, to do anything you should do it correctly or it wont work. Its like trying to learn a language without ever learning the alphabet in that language. Floorbeds are awesome if you know how to care for them. aka turn the mattress regularly, and depending on what floor you have, you have once a year where you 'air' the bed, aka take the mattress completely off the floor and let it air (this is if you have carpeted floors), easily dont if you do a big cleaning, like do it during Christmas cleaning or springcleaning.
I'm sooo happy I'vve found your videos! My son is 2 and a half and I decided to re-do all the house "Montessori way" and I wasn't sure what to do with the wardrobe in his room. You gave me the solution, yeah! Thank you Ashley!
Oh good! Yay, I’m so glad I could help! 👏🏻😊 A cheaper and quicker solution that still achieves the same purpose is to hang a closet rod really low down in the actual closet so they can reach it, and use those plastic 3-drawer storage containers for the other items - that’s what we had before and it worked great!
My daughter is 14 months old. This is so inspiring! I'll recreate some of your ideas in her room moving forward! Thanks!
I’ve been so confused on how to reorganize me and my toddler daughter’s routines, your channel is what I’ve needed!
Inspiring if I ever become a mom this is what I want to do
I love this your letting your child do things independently while noy being irresponsible its soooo great I love your ideas and how original these ideas are!!!
I have been searching CZcams trying to find where someone used this bed as a floor bed! My daughter just turned two and a friend of mine gave me this bed. I don’t like that her mattress would sit up so high with where the slats are supposed to be. So glad you made this video!! I also love the little mirror area and wardrobe. So good to encourage independence where they are fully capable and learning!🥰
Wow so much effort! Ur kid is lucky to have you as mom, good job👍 I learned a lot from u
I had never heard of any of this. Just watched this one and the baby room. I think when me and my fiance have a kid we will be using the Montessori baby room method. Cheap, efficient, good for baby and minimalist so my fiance should love it lol
That wardrobe idea is genius! Love the whole room! 😍
Thank you for your videos! I love them.
😍 Aww...you guys did a great job on Kylie’s room! I love it!💖👍🏼
Thanks so much! 😊
Her room is so perfect! This is such much more relaxing than other kids rooms I’ve seen and been in. I love the book reading area! How you modified the furniture is just brilliant
Aw!!! I love her room explanation mark it's so clean, bright and I love the little stations that she has to keep herself occupied!!! So minimalistic but again, looks amazing! 😍🙏🏽
Thank you!!! PS I LOVE that you use the voice function to type stuff out, so do I ALL THE TIME!! Hahaha!! 😂
@@HapaFamily when you have two kids, things to do, and no hands LOL... It's necessary!! 😅😁😂
The ZHAD Family EXACTLY!!
I love that wardrobe idea! And so simple!
Thank you! It's so helpful to see these examples!
I'm so grateful for your videos. As an aspiring mother I'm already making changes in my life to prepare myself for a more simplistic life. Gotta get me trained before I can teach a child about this wild world.
💕
I love the minimalistic style!
HI! I'm a new subscriber. I'm so glad to find your channel! Been looking for a toddler wardrobe. Will go to your DIY video!
Love the wardrobe, such a cool Ikea hack
I’m so glad I found this channel! 🤗🤗
This is so cute and inspirational. I’ve been wanting to minimize my daughters room and I think I may use this as inspiration!
I just stumbled upon your video of your babies room and it caught my interest. My children are grown and starting their own families ... But I sure wish I would have had access and knowledge of this method when mine were young. I love it!! And I enjoy watching your presentations of the style. Maybe I can talk my children into this method 😊
Doing complex algebra in my head trying to figure out how to get my fiancé to agree with doing something like this for our future kids 🤔🤔🤔 I don’t think I will even get him to slightly lean towards this lol.
I just found your channel, this is my second video in and I am hooked
The little mirror and shelf are so cute 🥰
Drapes would be so cute on the bed posts..flowy pretty stuff
i wanted to SQUEAL at that little wardrobe AHHHH!!!! sooo freaking cute!! wonderful mama:) giving your babies the space to let their intelligence flourish!!
I always love a great IKEA hack! Awesome ideas!!
Us too! Thank you!
The tiny wardrobe omg!! so cute!! 😍😍
Your channel is great! We are definitely making some big changes around here and already favored your potty training vid and this vid! Thanks!!
You are so welcome! 🥰
I don’t have wildlings this age for a long time now but wanted to give you support. I did this similar when my daughter was young. The bed is a great idea. My sons still move too much. I ended up buying them a double bed each. Proud of you. 😘
Thank you so much, your support is incredibly appreciated. 🥰
I love the minimalist side of you.
Love Kylie's room, you and Mike did a great job with that wardrobe! Everything is so accessible to her, the bed is my favorite part ❤️! My son moves a lot in his crib and that bed is great for when we move him into a bigger bed.
Thank you! 😊 And yes, Kylie is like an acrobat in her sleep, so I would highly recommend this simple solution when Alex is ready!
I was looking for a montessori option for my 15 mo daughter's wardrobe. We just bought our first place and the children's bedroom is so tiny and it has NO closet whatsoever. We want her to be safe without us in her room (that she'll soon share with her baby brother since I'm 5 months pregnant, although we will cosleep for the first year), and for everything to be available to her. She already helps us folding and putting away her clothes, it's so cute! Although in the end I still have to do it again, but I let her try anyway, it makes her SO happy. Your girl is super precious! Thanks for the tour :)
I have had my daughter in her own floor bed since 6 months of age. Your videos give me so much inspiration. Sometimes when I feel like I don't have any ideas for things to do with my daughter or just feel like a failure, I watch your videos for inspiration. Thanks so much for what you do! Before moving her into her own room in her floor bed, she co-slept with my husband and I. She has rarely had a good night's sleep. It's really tough on me. I sleep trained at 6 months and she did ok, just needing to be consoled maybe 2-3 times a night. But there have beens ups and downs since then. She is 15 months old now. More recently on our sleep journey, we went to visit my family for Christmas. Since then (for the past 2 months), her sleep has just been a wreck. She wakes up through the night sometimes 10+ times on a bad night. I had closed her door for some time after the bedtime routine to enforce her going to sleep but she would just bang on the door and scream and cry. Now we leave her door open but I have to stay in the room until she falls asleep of course. It takes her usually an hour or sometimes 2+ hours to fall asleep. I try not to lay down with her but sometimes I give up and just lay down with her. Often when she wakes up at night, she will go around to my husband because she knows he won't take her back to her bed. He'll just grab her and put her in our bed. Then she will sleep until morning. Lately even if she's asleep in bed with me, she has been waking up crying. I don't know why she's crying. And going to other people's house during nap time is impossible. I end up having to go for a drive to get her nap in if I'm not home. How do you do naps with your girls at other people's houses? Have you had any of these problems? I really feel like a failure often. I know when I talk about how difficult sleep is with my daughter, everybody just says that I should have put her in a crib. If you read my comment, thanks so much.
I hv read and felt every word u said .
I also atruggle with the exacte same thing .. qnd when i try to explain to ppl they just give u the same dumb answer "put her in her crib" 😒 really ppl?! Just shut up coz u ain't living the same thing iam !
EVERYDAY !
my baby wakes up around 7 to 10 times every single night .. i cant remember when was the last time i had a straight night sleep .. she wakes up crying .. needing nothing but comfort and making sure tht am right there next to her .. after comforting her and trying to go back to sleep i can't or it will take me another hour or two to fall back to sleep and its when the second episode of crying needing comfort again ..
Family and friends can't understand.. and keep asking why don't u hang out or do this or tht ! I wanna see u ppl doing all wht u doing with the messed up sleep am having every freaking night !
If u hv figured it out already plz help me out .. coz am still struggling to this hour !
Cheers from a frustrated mom in the other part of the world
Omg the everyone poops book!! We borrowed that one from the library. The kids loved it of course!
It’s a great montessori bedroom. Thank you for sharing 😊
The bunk bed reminded me of my younger brother’s bed which had a tent on top of the upper bed. Sadly we had to sell it since it was too small.
this is so interesting. i think i really like this idea. wish my mother cared this much about me and my siblings hahah.
Thank for the inspiration! I’m having a really hard time getting rid of toys because they were pretty expensive. 🤷🏻♀️☺️
What a great thing you're doing for your children!
Would love a video On things to look for in picking a Montessori school/daycare.
Wow I don't have kids but I loved watching this video of your kids room! Y'all are incredible parents and I would have loved to have had this room growing up! lol
Love that bed setup! I'm currently using the Nugget Comfort as my toddler's bed and she rolls off. I try to put the triangle pillows on the edge so she doesn't roll off but it still happens. So THANK YOU that's such a great idea =)
Awesome! I love this room :)
Love it!! I’m hoping to eventually make wardrobes like that for G and V when we no longer need the dresser for a changing table!!
It’s so easy and cute, I am in love with it!
This is great! Thank you 😊
Legit made me so happy to see you don't fold clothes, feeling like I'm not so bad for also not folding them 🥰
just amazing!
I love that ikea has so many great inexpensive items to use for a Montessori home
It’s also good to put family pictures at their eye level! It’ll make them feel comforted when they’re in their rooms alone
This setup is exactly how I’m going to do for my daughter 👍🏼
She is adorable 🥰 And her dress😲❤️
Awesome toddler room! We have everything reachable for our daughter around the house. Except she is still in a crib because that’s her only safe zone lol. I did that for a peace of mind while she takes a nap or in the mornings.
Thank you! You totally have to do what’s right for your family. :)
Hi Ashley, i love your bed idea! Do u have a vid or instructions on how you hacked it into a floor bed?
My sister has that same comforter set!
Shes 11 and wanted a unicorn themed bedroom and that's the comforter she picked!
Super happy to have found your channel. You and your hubby are very creative. I love what you've both done with her room. Thanks for the great ideas. #newsubbie 😊
Thank you so much!!! 🥰 You are very welcome!
Beautifull room mama. And adorable baby!
Love this video, thank you for sharing. Planning my sons bedroom to be a fun place for him as he grows and independently transitions out of co sleeping. What age would you say this bed would be useful for in your experience? Thank you
I started Montessori school at ~18 months and I immediately recognized those wood blocks, and it has been like 20 years since I saw them but they are identical
Sofia i didnt go to Montesori but had those blocks. Best time after Legos
Until this day I still sleep in a floor bed. I too like the Montessori way of setting up a room for children based upon their needs and not our convenience, though I currently have no choldren of my own, ha ha. At first o honestly wasn't on board with the stricter guidelines for Montessori schools because they tend too teach children all the same disregarding varying needs amongst their students. However in a smaller group environment rather than a daycare, preschool, or pre-k, where you could have more one on one time with a particular child the Montessori teaching method is absolutely the best.
Thanks so much for your great videos! I'm really getting a lot of ideas about especially enjoy your calm attitude. I'm just wondering, what's the theory behind the Montessori for bed?
You’re very welcome. Thanks for watching! The floor bed is all about independence, allowing the child to get out of their own bed and explore their room and possibly even entertain themselves for a short amount of time from as early an age as possible. This would stand in opposition to the child standing in the crib crying for the adult, because they can’t get out once they wake up.
Thanks for the video! It gave me quite a few ideas about how to set up my baby's room. I was wondering how you managed to fit the camera adapter under your outlet cover! I have a different camera, and its adapter just barely won't fit under the cover.
Hahahaha I love that you used to be a dolphin trainer, makes sense ;). It is all about guiding the animal in the right direction, same as your kids. I have never heard of Montessori before but I love this approach. My husband and I are planning on having kids soon. I just left the zoo field (worked with giraffes and lots of other ungulates) for a more family friendly job, for me. Love these videos, great job. Keep them coming.
Love it ! IKEA is great.Could you adopt me ? (Obviously just kidding ....but this room has the child in mind ❣🎈
Thanks for sharing all your Montessori ideas, I love watching your videos. I am hoping to get this same bed for my son and I was wondering what mattress you used? Is it the same mattress you have in your other daughters infant bedroom tour video ?
You need to talk about being a dolphin trainer!! That sounds so cool
Everything is so small and low it's so cute I can't 😣 Look at those tiny dresses omgggg
