I remember watching these 4 years ago without a child. Now I have a 1 year old and I always come back to your videos 💜
Same here!! 😂❤️
Great video. My husband always gets comments from his work colleagues assuming that we must have a lot of money because we want to use the Montessori approach. I think it’s because the majority of people don’t realise that Montessori is simply a mindset, rather than having all these bells and whistles attached. Yes it’s nice to have some good quality toys, but we can just as easily recreate them at home with cardboard boxes, crafting supplies, etc. I think if more people knew what Montessori was, and used their own supplies, all these toy companies would have to reduce the prices of their products.
Do i have kids? No.
Do i find this fascinating? YES.
This is kinda what i would make for myself when i was a kid. This is awesome and soooo cool to reuse ur everyday stuff for ur kids :)
You make me Wana be a better mother... Thank you
You are already a great mom
She’s not a better mother. She’s ANOTHER mother. And she has some great ideas she is very kind to share. 💜
@Ella rose you're 8??
@Ella rose bro, you're pretty intelligent for a 9 year old, but if you're just pranking me then im dead
I love DIYing. The children learn better when we customize their work.
Totally agree!! 😊 Thanks for watching!!
Love the tissue box and object permanence! Thank you!
I don't have kiddos and while I may adopt one day, I'm not having any biologically for multiple reasons. Oddly enough, and despite the fact that I'm not a mama, I really enjoy watching your videos and am always struck by how lucky your daughters are to have you as a mom! It's great that you're helping other parents as well. The world needs all the good parents it can get :-)
when they master the popsicle stick one you could color the sticks /holes so its also a color sorting game
That’s an excellent idea!! 😊
That sounds awesome :D
The wipe box thing is also fun for a child who wants to imitate mommy or daddy taking care of a baby sibling. S/he can take wipes for his/her own "baby".
A coffee cup and straw makes a pretty good toy as well.
I can even see how some of those cards can work well for older kids. Say you have a card with pictures of soap, a toilet, and a towel. They can put them in order: First you go potty, then you wash your hands with soap, and finally you dry your hands with a towel. Over time, you can add more cards and make it more complex.
I'm all for finding materials that grow with your child.
Yeah it blows my mind how pricey Montessori toys/tools are! Maria Montessori started her child learning house for poor children. It was not intended to be only for rich kids, but today only wealthy families can send their kids to those school or afford the materials.
So true! I don’t understand why it isn’t more accessible.
yes!! It's so frustrating. this video is great!
@@HapaFamily it’s called Disneyland haha Walt made it for families and the greedy men took over and have officially made it unaffordable. Thank you for these videos! God bless you momma!
Exactly how i feel about it Sande
Actually they are the same price as normal toys but hard to find
You are an absolute genius. If I ever have kids I feel like it will be so much easier and more manageable
I wish I had started looking all this stuff up before having kids! I'm learning now and putting things together but if I could do it over I would have had all these activities planned and ready to go for my children.
I remember watching this video with curiosity but little motivation a few years ago, just out of fun, because I simply loved this channel. I can't believe I'm back to it now, to get DIY ideas for my 9month daughter ❤ love you Ashley! 😘
I’m watching these for my 9 month old too 😂❤
As you were showing every single toy, I chuckled to myself and thought about how I might have more fun with it than my kid would haha
🤣🤣🤣 same and I have no kids
I just found your channel and I love your ideas! I’m a sixty-two years old grandmother of four but I volunteer in my church’s nursery. I get so tired of the same old toys they have. They love handmade activities. (A Christmas tree with Velcro ornaments made from old cards)Now you’ve given me some fresh ideas that are so cost effective! And it’s fine if they don’t last, unlike a pricey toy that breaks. Thank you!
Thank you so much my mother has some anger issues and resolves to hitting and even hits my dad when they fights so now my younger brother is very violent so I wanna raise him right thank you
Honey call the police they will help you
You are definitely right about the age when we are talking about toys. It's true and I have an example with my boyfriend who built things and figures of Lego made for older kids at the age of 10- 12 when he was much younger. He created things with Lego with his own fantasy like an electric "foam machine"
🔥🔥🔥 As a new parent this is a game changer for my wife and I. You’re awesome, appreciate you!
Thank you for this video! Ive been looking for activities to do with my kids but does not cost too much, im lucky to have found this video! God bless your heart
Thank you so much for making this - there's a sense of satisfaction you get from creating something out of items you already have on hand!
Quarantined with a 6 month old is a challenge, this video is a lifesaver! Thanks for such simple ideas that I'm sure my baby is going to love!
FANTASTIC ASHLEY!! I've been doing 80% of these without knowing that it was Montessori related. Thanks for sharing all the info and your life... if I could👍🏻more than once, I would do it 100 times! 😁
You’re so sweet! :)
Thank you for this video!!! I have been struggling to find affordable toys for my 14 month old that will help develop his fine motor skills. He has a dev delay and I often don’t know what will help him or what he can do. These ideas will be so fun to try with him!
This is truly the best video I’ve seen on fun yet educational and inexpensive things to do with a baby/toddler. I’m a new nanny and this is so helpful! I can’t wait to do all these things with my little boy!
Great video! I am a day care educator and I love to add some Montessori activities in my class especially for the special needs kids!
This is so helpful my 2 year old daughter loves arts and crafts and learning numbers and colours I'm running put of ideas to keep her occupied while in lockdown I'm definitely going to try these out
I just made my own popsicle game today with a shoe box and my 20m-old daughter LOVES it! She mastered it in no time and enjoys putting in all the sticks I've given her and then opening the box to take them out and do it all over again. Thank you so much for the inspiration!
I love your videos. I am in my 60s and taking care of 15 mo old. this has been a pleasant education for me. thank you for your time and experience
Thank you so much Ashley this is really helping me and my 1 year 7 months loves it.
I love this! Thank you so much!!! I can’t afford the toys like this and feel so devastated about it all the time that I can’t give my girl the toys she deserves but this makes me so happy 😀 will definatley try them all
So happy to help!
As a fellow homeschooler, you are a natural! These are all excellent -thank you for sharing.
I get excited watching these. Now I can better prepare for my next child. I have a daughter that is 7 now and she went to a Montessori school at 20 months old. It really helps her develop a stronger sense of self
Hi Ashley I loved this video. Yours is the first of the montessori videos I’ve watched so far which stays true to the “most of the raw materials you can find at home” concept. All the ideas are simple and easy and sound like they’ve come from real kids (or maybe my child is a lot like yours are 😂) AND you’ve hit the nail on the head about avoiding mess in the activities put out. I want to let my kid make a mess, but not EVERY SINGLE DAY!
Thank you so much for your help. You don’t know how much you’re appreciated. 💖
These ideas are amazing and so much more cost effective!!
I love these ideas! Thank you for another great video, Ashley❤️
Thank youuuuuu!!! I loved doing crafts! You make this enjoyable for the both of us.. and def saves a lot of money too! ❤
Thank you soooo much, My daughter is 16 month, didn’t thought the things that you showed could become toys for her!! I’ll began my craft tomorrow ❤️ thanks!!!
As always I absolutely love these videos! I want to try so many of them 💛 Thanks!
Can't wait to see what you put together! :)
Finally something original and helpful. Thank a lot, will safe this video and will subscribe :)
This video is exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much! I want to implement Montessori toys and learning with my 12 month old and I've been wanting to make homemade toys for him and the ones you showed are so cute!
great ideas!! cant wait to implement them - youre an awesome mama.. motivating me
Thank you for your ideas I'm going trying out
This is fantastic! I'm due my little one in June and my sister has recommended this channel and I'm really excited to get making these toys and learning more about Montessori :-)
I really appreciate your efforts as I actually like all of the activities you have shown. so thumbs up
Some things my daughter has enjoyed was pulling all of the tissues out of a tissue box, now several months later she enjoys taking them out and then putting them back in. Similar to the wipe box idea you showed. Also one thing we did was Q tips putting them into a tumblr cup with the little hole for the straw she loves that one.
The tumbler idea is a great one!!! So inventive! 🥰
This is the first channel that I’ve seen someone making toys for kids thank you it costs a lot to buy all the toys exspecially when you can make them and I’m still learning what things I can do with my little man so this is really helpful thank you ❤️
Very helpful video!!!!! I have a one year old who is so interested in learning! These activities are so perfect for her. Thank you so much!!!
This was so helpful and informative! I'm a new mama and have a 7 month old and was running out of ideas for activities and learning. I have turned my day in to a craft day and excited for my daughter to wake up from her nap to play with what I have created using your video. :) thank you!
This is amazing! Love how most of these are free and I feel better about reusing containers I would normally trash. I've been stashing a lot of containers knowing I could use them to make activities and toys for my daughter. I've used a yogurt container as a ball post but then she kinda destroyed it and I wasn't inspired to DIY anymore. Now I'm so excited to try out all of your ideas. Thank you!
Yay! 👏🏻 I love to repurpose recyclables for stuff like this. Glad I could inspire you to give it a go again! 😊
These are such great, cost-effective ideas. Thanks so much for sharing! Really excited to try them out with my 8 month old.
Useful activities in the development of cognitive and physical development. Love your videos

I love Montessori I am not a Mum but have worked in the child care industry for many years and have always loved toys that yo can make with children. Thank you so much for your tips . I have used a variety of different language cards over the years an one of the one that has gone down well with older children is picture of professions yo can use these for snap cards or lotto cards and the children love you can use anything from animals to kitchen things or whatever, as an extra game you can use them for a memory game as well.
Omg thank you!!!!❤
