Thank you so much for sharing your clutter and showing that it's a process with (sometimes) slow progress to declutter/set up a less cluttered space for our children and us and also being so honest and open about repurposing stuff. It really makes me feel good and empowered as opposed to some other videos out here that usually just make oneself feel less capable. Great tips as well, thanks!
I love how well organized and useful everything in this room is ❤️ Have you added a foreign language to your routine yet? What about Spanish? We would love to partner up with you!
thank you! We have not... we'd love for her to be bilingual, especially spanish! It's so helpful living where we live! We dealt with some speech stuff and she's just not been into language so far. So following the montessori approach of following her for now!
I love how personal your home is...it hasn't become a Montessori school but the elements of Montessori have been made homey & personal for your family. Thank you for sharing.
Yes I love that about Montessori, reusing and recycling materials that you already have. It doesn’t have to look “trendy” as long as it’s tidy, not overwhelming and functional 🙌🏽🙌🏽. A lot of the best materials I bought were from what we call in Aotearoa (NZ) op shops AKA thrift stores 😊.
New mom, new Montessorian, new content creator over here lol just wanted to mention that I love your video. Thanks for your genuine energy and some great tios💛
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for right now as my daughter is about to turn 1 and I am trying to figure out how to raise her following a more Montessori approach.
Great tips, very organazed and toddler, kids and adult's friendly. I'll try to organaize my home with this helpful ideas, thank you from Monterrey, Mexico.
We have a few and I can't remember which was out in this video! But this blog post pretty much covers all the ones we have and other options I'd recommend depending on what you're looking for: www.theconfusedmillennial.com/busy-boards-toddlers/
It may be for some kids! But in our case it follows Montessori principles and works for us... my daughter has been using them with me since she was 18 months (over a year now) and now uses them independently. They are a realistic part of life the complement the montessori sensitive period for movement (which I have a video on). It's what's right for our family, not for everyone...
See the first video in the series! I talk about where I learned, and books are in the description. I am working on a more comprehensive blog post that should be up in about a month or so about montessori books though!
Love this! Much more realistic than some that I have seen! We do have a front facing bookshelf in our playroom and love it. But I also don't limit what books are out with the exception of holiday/seasonal books. I rotate what books are on the front facing part, but she has access to all the others in her room and on the slot at the bottom of our front facing shelf.
awe thank you!! So I ended up doing what you described actually! I got a small front facing bookcase for the fireplace mantel in here which we use for library books we rotate every 2 weeks and give her some books in her room so she basically has access to them all now but without the chaos haha!

Hey ! Awesome video. Where did you get that pink doll house? I don’t see a link in the description. :/
We have this one: bit.ly/3RsHuP1
Love the play space! Can you share a link to the colorful wool material baskets you have all around thank you!
Thank you! Those were in our Lovevery play kits! But they sell them individually now too (just slightly different colors): bit.ly/3xNbsEy
Love your idea of using a bench as an open shelf!! As I have so many different benches at home, and it helps save some money! Thank you!
Of course!! Happy it was helpful!!
Having weights in a toddlers play room seems dangerous

Your videos are so helpful! (We live in FL too!) ☺️
ahh thank you!! and yay!! Nowhere I'd rather live in the states!
Hey! Where is the climbing play gym from?
Everything is linked in the description! It's the pikler triangle link!
What do you think of the IKEA gym mats?
I know people like them who have them! I haven't looked into them too much since we just never felt the need.
