I still giggle remembering that one time Mia opened the drawer and no spoons and the look of “I can’t believe you didn’t do the dishes” 😂
OK now. This is terrific. Now sign them up for the Cordon Bleu in Paris and you are all set! LOL.
I love watching your videos!!! You're so well-spoken, a great teacher, love you! 😍
I absolutely love this idea gives your children so much Independence.
I love the Montessori Method ❤ I started doing the practical way with my daughter and I just love it so much! What I love must is about see our little us as unique individuals and their needs.
Thank y for the video!
Love it!!! Isn't it SO satisfying to have a vision and follow through with it, having it turn out just as you planned. That's my drug when it comes to organizing my house 😁
Great video as always, Ashley! Thank you so much 💗💐
Love your videos! It’s so sweet to see how your girls have grown 🤗
I love this. Thanks for sharing this. So helpful!
I love these ideas! I'm not much of a cook but I can certainly get into it a little more if it means more shared time with bubs ❤️
I’ve been thinking of something like this for our boys. They are also 4 and 2. We also have 8 teenagers but they can use the real thing. Love it! Thank you so much for sharing 💓💓💓
This is so awesome and functional! I really want to do this too, its so hard finding the right space in a small kitchen
Love this setup! It's so great to incorporate things like this into your house for your children. If you want more fun things to do together, sing and dance along to our representative animated children's songs!
Such a good idea. I love the bamboo set
Awsome idea I can't wait to implement a kitchen set up for my daughter when move. Her eater basket has her first set of cutlery, bowls, cups, bibs and some fun baby snacks because she's not old enough for chocolate yet.
Nice! You gave me the idea to give my toddler her own cabinet. So she has had it since we moved. I could only spare half a cabinet but she uses my cutting boards, rags etc. that are stored elsewhere.
I love your channel!
Soooo cute!!
Sooo ready to do this for my daughter when we move finally 💗🎉🙌🏼😭
Love!
Such amazing ideas
Oh my! This was brilliant. It looks like it was made for that spot. I love the organization and the independence it gives the girls! Looks great!
Hi, looks real good! any chance to get the link for the plates organizer? Thank you!
Would love to see your girls using their items, especially the “cutty” items like the apple slicer other wavy cutter
In the Easter vlog one of them used the egg slicer, which I was pretty impressed by!
Would you be able to make a video about montessori at home for smaller homes? I have a 2.5 year old and currently expecting my second and we've been following the montessori method as best we can. The issue I have now is lack of space as we're in a two bedroom apartment in London, UK which is quite smaller than a typical two bed American apartment haha. I'd really appreciate it!
Love, American living in the UK!
Using the play kitchen was such a good idea! It looks really sweet.
Oh wow the play kitchen fits so well in there!! Overall it all looks so great.
Do you think Kylie is close to growing out of any of these items, Eg the glasses? What do you plan on doing when she does? Letting her use yours or getting a kind of inbetween size. And then would you store them here and help Mia understand that she and Kylie each have their own or keep them separate to avoid any confusion/jealousy.
I'm always interested to see how different parents handle the challenges that come with having kids close in age😊
Hard to tell which size she has there, but the 3-6 age class often uses the 9 oz glasses (looks to be that one in Ashley's video). For most kiddos it was plenty, and for those who want more, it is a wonderful chance for pouring practice!
@@josie9583 Ah good catch! My infant daughter already drinks a lot as well, so I'm definitely looking straight into the 9 oz once she masters the open cup and outgrows her shot glasses. Good to know they don't look too different, wouldn't be much of a difference in holding then! Saved me a trip to IKEA to compare 😀
@@josie9583 I dont think she has the Ikea glasses, but they're similar to the bormiolli roco from what I see. We have their shot glasses but I'm planning to go with the Ikea ones for the larger size :)
Sorry didn't mean for this simple question to get so confusing!
We use the 6 oz Bormioli Rocco glasses for both girls, and it seems to be a great size still even for Kylie. There are some times that she will need to refill it, but usually the one glass is enough. :) As she gets bigger and we move up to a bigger size, I imagine I’ll probably just have both available and allow Mia to use whichever size she prefers. Hope that helps! ❤️
I have 3 adult kids & 4 grandkids. Always have a Kid Cabinet stocked for them (even the grown ones hehehe)
Hello Ashley, just wanted to say I love your videos! Did you setup the toddler kitchen once your eldest started BLW? Or did you wait until she could walk?
Beautiful revamp! Kylie and Mia must be so excited! We have the opposite problem-not enough space even for our own items, and we are in the stage where she will need her own shelf (or cabinet lol) any moment now 🙃
Is Kylie showing interest in folding yet? Always amazed me how concentrated and intentional the 3-6 age class was in folding their napkins just right. I really need to practice that skill soon too
Our child has only half a cabinet with her plates, bowl, cups and cutlery. Other items she just has to get from the place they are stored. I use a shelf divider to create more space.
Yes, she is! And she’s also been very into “refolding” her clothes the way SHE wants them at bedtime (like after we’ve gotten the PJs and brought them to the bathroom for after the bath), she will sit on the floor and re-fold them “just right” before laying them out to be ready. ☺️
@@HapaFamily why am I not surprised! It must be wonderful to observe her! Really looking forward to that age :)
Maybe Kylie can show us what the right folding method is in her opinion one day in the vlogs. Only if she wants to, of course.
💜
Hi Ashley please leave link to your weaning chair
Can I ask you for the measurement hight after you took off the top connection
What are you going to do for the girls high school education? There are hardly any Montessori high schools and I’m very conflicted if I start my child on Montessori schools and then they would have to transfer to a public school and be shel shocked by the differences. What are your thoughts?
The best channel ❤️ thank you for making this content!
I've always wanted to do this kind of stuff with my tot but my concern is somehow she's a bit scared at times to be alone or walk without me although she's been very helpful. Like feeding the dogs, giving them water, preparing her meal, our meal, all of those stuff except, she'd always clinging into my neck and won't let go. I appreciate it that much but I really wanted her to teach independency so I think I'm just gonna hope and wait. But what can you suggest? Should I still set it up and try and hope that one day she'll do it on her own?
This isn’t related to this awesome video, but could you do a video on your choice to live away from family and how you keep your girls connected with grandparents/cousins when living long-distance?
Or talk about it in a what’s hapaning 😁
Great idea, i would be so interested too
Great video. My baby is only 9 months so she’s not at this stage yet but when she is I would love to do this. I do think she’s ready to learn to use a fork and drinking glass now.
In a Montessori setting, we usually start them at 6 months with a cup and utensils, so she is likely already capable! :)
I want to set this up for my daughter but my concern is how do I keep her little cousins out of it when they come over to play?
What age did you start them in the kitchen?
Hi ashley. I am from Colorado as well. I love your videos. My daughter is 5 and will be going to kindergarten this year. I wanted to know if you have a good Montessori school in Thornton area that you would recommend?
Not familiar with the Thornton area, so sorry! :/
No b roll of them using their new storage? Ah darn
I was eagerly waiting for that too! Maybe in the next vlog?
Yes, definitely in this weekend’s family vlog! :)
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I’m so
Do you give them pretend play food or more real food? I’m debating on just giving her real food to play with.
We do a mix of both. They definitely PREFER working with real food, but they also like to role play “cooking” during their normal play sometimes, too. :)
I have a serious question, my toddler son has always loved throwing things and I have a very hard time teaching him that certain items aren’t for throwing. I usually try to redirect him or have to completely separate him from the item but in situations like eating how do I teach him that the bowls, glasses, plates etc, aren’t for throwing?
Does he point to things that he likes? Or speaks already?
This is exactly what we are going through right now with our toddler too!! As much as it's soo frustrating at times, we just have to be patient and continue redirecting them. We bought bean bags and balls that we bring him too when he throws something and let him know that these are the only things we allow to be thrown in the house. Hope this helps!
My son went through this for a longgg time! The trajectory schema. He is just now starting to understand that certain things are not for throwing at 19 months. Every child is different though and some children grasp these concepts earlier and others like to break a bunch of things first🤦♀️. Consistently is key
That's ok. Let him throw it, when he sees it breaks, then he will not throw or it's just a stage
Very developmentally appropriate! Would be more concerning if he wasn't! As others have mentioned, it will take a lot of consistency, perseverance, and patience on your end but just keep redirecting him in a calm manner. They need to learn natural consequences-if I drop the glass, it will shatter and I will have no water to drink AND I will need to clean it up. Not as a punishment, but simply as the natural progression of what happens when we throw things.
Seems you know exactly what to do-just remember that it does take time but they DO get there eventually.
Do a baby alive video
First
Aren't your girls just letting the water drop on the floor for fun? Because these thoughts unfortunately prevent me from giving my daughter the freedom I probably should be giving.
In her vlogs, you can see Kylie and Mia are really good about not doing that (at least from what we see :) ). It may definitely happen and there's 2 ways you can go about it. 1 is to explain each time why we should be careful with water-it costs money, it is wasteful to let it drip, etc. Then involve your child in the clean up-not as a punishment, but as an opportunity to learn that the natural consequence of making a mess is to clean it up. Make sure to phrase it that way. Something along the lines of "seems you spilled some water here. Let's get a rag and wipe that up now so the floor is clean and nobody slips". You may need to be consistent with it for a while, but children are very malleable and will learn.
If you feel your child is not yet at this stage, prepare a pitcher of water for them to use instead. If you want to be very conservative, it may be the small pitcher with just 1 serving of water. And that is their water for that meal/snack time, and so they need to be very careful with it. Again, explain this to your child and if spills happen, repeat the cleanup process.
Children are naturally curious and want to see cause and effect, but they are not mischievous for the sole purpose of causing trouble. It is work on our end, but if we really prepare the environment properly, our children can and will be successful :)
Maria has nailed the response before I had a chance to reply! (Thanks, mama! 😜) But no, my girls don’t play with the water at all. Kylie never did, and Mia only did for a very short time when she first was tall enough to reach it - and even then, it was just novel and exciting to have the ability and independence to do it, she was just playing with cause and effect (“Oh wow, when I pull this knob, water comes out!”). But she’s been over it for a while and she’s actually getting very good at filling her cup without any overspill, and being sure to have the cup under the spout before she turns it on.
Thank you both! Your responses helped my montessorian thinking in general! ❤️
Boring 🙄
