Ashley you’re the real MVP! You have a knack for making things seem so approachable and I’m always so impressed with Kylie’s abilities. This is such a resource for parents and I’m so glad that it’ll be here when I eventually become a mom!
Love you, Ashley! Our 11-month-old baby is truly everyone's delight. She's so smart and independent, and a huge part of that is thanks to you! You made Montessori so much easier to understand and follow compared to other RUclips channels. 🌟🌟🌟🌟⭐
I have started involving my son during meal prep and laundry and he absolutely loves it, he now keeps asking “can I help?” It’s also improved his vocabulary so much.. Thanks for the tips!
Kylie does so well and stays so focused. I love how Mia is often 'round about doing her thing. You have given us such a good understanding and given us leeway with good suggestions for expanding upon things and practical applications. I loved the girls enjoying the rain outside.
I love this video so much! I went to a Montessori school from preschool to 6th grade, and until this day I never understood why we poured water back and forth or prepped our own snacks for snack time. We even hand washed our clothes with an old washboard!
I still have memories of pin pricking (we caked them “poke outs”) from when I was in Montessori pre school!!! I believe we used a little square of carpet instead of cork board to make it easier to poke!
I thanks you so much for the ideas, I also recognize that I have been doing good to my child with my empirical knowleadge, but only thanks to you after checking your videos.
Thank you Ashley for always giving us so great and useful idea of how to raise the kid. I am a new mom and I am from Cambodia which is a country with complete different culture from where you are from. Watching your video really inspire me that my kid can do so much thing which I never thought they could.
I’ve been constantly rewatching your videos! Wanted to ask how do you balance homeschooling with your weekly goals and routines, and any suggestions on how Mia respects Kyle’s time in her activities without distracting her?
Honestly I love how u incorporate an activity with fun. I've seen a few videos where the activity is so strict, w the child seated on chair w table. Your kind of learning is so fun n I love that! My daughter loves it!
LOVE this video! All your videos are great but as a mom who is just starting the homeschooling journey with preschool this year, this video was so inspiring. Can't wait to see more on how you are tackling homeschooling :)
Hi Ashley, I've been watching you for a long time. As Kylie gets older, what books are you reading to get your wide range of ideas? Do they just come to you or you have several books that you use as your guide? Love your content so much! Thanks for this hard work that you're sharing with us!
Thank you for these great ideas! I just started a construction vehicle unit with my son and alot of these activities will be perfect to implement! Thanks again and great job Kylie!😊
This is great Ashley. I am excited to try these activities with my child. I wish you all the luck for your channel in the future. You deserve so much success !
Love this video! For the longest time, I had given up on card activities because I don't have a color printer or laminator. Seeing these more advanced card activities has inspired me to use what I've got. I can easily print cards in black and white that will work, and I will pull out the cards I made from pasting pictures from magazines onto index cards. They took days to make, so I should use them. 😆
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! 🙏 I have a 4 year old and most of the activities I have been finding are for younger toddlers which is great but I really needed this kind of inspiration and information.
Thank you for making this video, I really appreciate it and my kiddos will too ! Older one will be 4 in March and begin the Montessori learning and younger one is almost 1 so I found you right on time! ❤️✨
I love everything you teach. Always amazed at your parenting and Kylie's skills at such a young age. The reading and math activities look so engaging and confidence-building. The new various screw-drivers and screws' activity was brilliant. And btw last video of breakfast crepes by Kylie followed by her dinosaur knowledge were mind-blowing [we couldn't help laughing how she amazed Mike too], omg she is creative, proposing using tissue paper for claws. Cooperation with Mia helping with laundry ... so cute. Do they ever squabble? I see Kylie as a patient big sister and Mia as little Miss Independent already. Thank you Ashley for all your efforts doing these fabulous videos. Love, Barb P.S. Montessori and Me looks like another hit, all the best to you both with that endeavor. I'll be a grandma soon and shopping here first.
How weird!!! I've watched a lot of your videos and love them but I somehow missed anything talking about Montisorri and Me. I've been eyeing a few different object permanence boxes on amazon and almost went with one of the cheaper ones. Then I decided to keep looking for what I actually would really like. (I don't necessarily like the paint on most of them) so I came across this one.... was reading reviews and someone said "I might be a little biased because I watch them on RUclips" so then I'm wondering ohh! I wonder who she watches. I started looking at the description photos and I'm like "HEY!!! I know who that is!!!" And then I clicked in my head, so I looked up the website and confirmed! I ended up ordering the box, course!🤗 I'm so excited to get it! Hahaha sorry for the long comment! I just thought I was funny that I decided to watch this older video today and then one of the first things to mention is Montisorri and Me!!
I LOVE this channel! If you’re looking for a great podcast to help with learning at home, I suggest “Cherishing Childhood: The Low-Tech Parenting Podcast.”
Oh my goodness, I did not know that the push pin activity is a montessori activity. Made me flash back to my elementary school days where every year they would have us do that with the shape of canada😂
Ashley, this is super helpful - as is all of your other videos. Please could you advise on the board games that you guys use? My daughter is 3 and I would love to introduce board games
Hi Ashley! I am a mom of a 3.5 year old boy and I want to thank you for bringing Montessori into our lives the practical way! I was wondering about the differences between boys and girls in regards to their interest in practical life activities such as for example doing laundry. My son has so far never showed an interest in this activity, as well as cleaning his table with a cloth. I am wondering how I can awaken his interest or how to approach this should the interest never come, given that I would like him to contribute to household tasks in the future. Many thanks in advance, Sabina
Love the ideas here, thank you! Any chance you might eventually make an ecourse for older children? My two girls are still under 36 months and I love your 0-36 months course, just thinking ahead. 😊
Hapa Family, yes!!! 🤗 Have a great weekend! And btw the tracing board is amazing. I recommended it in the large Montessori program that I’m in which has 50k plus members. Good job guys. Looking forward to seeing what the other products will be! Hoping there are cursive and number and shape tracing board options in the future too! Hehe. 🤗
Thank you. You provide great content in a relative manner. I only wish you has experience with twins. I provide daycare for my 16 mo twin grands and am challenged on being able to present activities without having double of everything . Too expensive and takes up too much room. If you have advice I’d appreciate any tips or recommend resources.
Hi Ashley! Wonderful video!! I have a 3 year old and I'm just really learning about the Montessori method. Is it too late to start with him? And if not, where do I begin? Should I start with activities geared toward much younger children then go forward? I I was thinkingto purchase your e-course. Just confused on how to begin. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
Do you have videos of what you did to teach Kylie prior to preschool age? She seems to know most of the things you showed. Knowing is an animal is a mammal or not, numbers, letters sounds matching the letter. Which videos do you suggest to get them ready for preschool?
Very new discoverer of this method. My son is about the same age as your daughter. We have noticed early on that he loves to learn but does not like to be taught; often overwhelmed when trying new things that he doesn't get right away, and would rather not know than be taught directly. I can't help but suspect it's the way I am teaching and have tried different approaches. Where would you recommend we start in Montessori. Thank you for your time!
Hi Ashley - What software do you use to create your cards? I have been using word but it takes me a rather long time with all the lines and all that. Also, how do you adjust the sizes of the pictures to match the objects perfectly ( I saw you talked about that in another video)? Thanks!
Hi Ashley. My daughter is 14 months old now and I wish I had introduced the Montessori method much earlier. Is 14 months too late? She is already very independent when it comes to playing, but she still drink from a bottle and I help to feed her her food at meal times.
I like to follow most of the activities you show but my 21 month-old keep every thing into his mouth and also lick floor/suck the toy figurines i present him. Can't predict the way of handling the activities i present. I dunno, how to stop it! So, stopped giving any activies to my toddler Our hearty congratulations to Montessori & me team for the launch. My suggestion is to build wooden alphabet/number blocks(which may include an alphabet/numbers to trace)for toddlers to play n learn.
I’m not sure if you have talked about this in a different video but my question is, do you teach religion at all with your children? My family is not super religious however, I like the idea of giving my children a foundation of faith by teaching them about Christianity and teaching them about prayer. I was just curious as to if you have any opinions/tips about this topic? Love your family! My husband is a 1/4 Okinawan!
Please any suggestions! My 2.5 toddler refuse almost anything i ask like washing hands, changing diaper, dressing and potty training. Most of the time she screams and kicks. Soon she starts daycare and i dont know how she will react because she has always been with me and last week for the first time she went to infront our yard to play with a babysitter and it was just a nightmare again screaming crying and kicking refusing to go as soon as she found out that i am staying home😭
Are these activities such as peg board and letter matching to picture ever on the shelf or are they taken out as you use them and put away from the child until til next time?
Ashley, idk if this is ok to ask, but can you do a comparison as to what a kid would learn by certain age Montessori vs regular education system??? I now cringe when I see a 4 year old giving the parents a hard time to eat or being feed by someone...
I’m sure this is asked a lot but will you be selling the bookshelf that you guys created? I would love to purchase one or make our own but the tools are what’s going to cost in the end. 😅
Hi ashley.. Everything u show is super ideas..u give lots of info to us in every video thank u so much..Ur child was listening well nd doing great👍but my 3yr old son doesn't even sit in one place for more than 1 min. If I give something he immediately put it in his mouth or throwing it in floor sometime breaking it.. He never listen my words nd doesn't sit nd play one game at a time. Pls tell me how I train him to sit, listen, play nd obey parents words.. He likes more active play rather than sit nd play..i can't able to manage him during this lockdwn period safely.. Pls tell me how to engage him nd make him to listen my words?i like to tell him stories but he didn't like to hear any kind of stories..also he tearing story books throwing objects etc

I am a veteran homeschool mom and home daycare provider, and recently fell in love with Montessori. I'm learning SO MUCH here!! Thank you.
With multiple kids the same ( or near the same) age, how do you have enough materials for each and how do you present activities?
Fellow daycare provider! Love Montessori concepts as well
@@allysonmccormack5529 I have not yet fully implemented Montessori in the daycare - I'm still in the learning process. 😄
Kylie does so well and stays so focused. I love how Mia is often 'round about doing her thing. You have given us such a good understanding and given us leeway with good suggestions for expanding upon things and practical applications. I loved the girls enjoying the rain outside.
Kylie is the cutest! I love all of her concentration faces and the smiles of accomplishment! ❤️
I love this video so much! I went to a Montessori school from preschool to 6th grade, and until this day I never understood why we poured water back and forth or prepped our own snacks for snack time. We even hand washed our clothes with an old washboard!

I love your math peg set. I have the same set but mine are tiny pegs compared to yours. Where is yours from? Great Video

Hopefully soon! :)
Hi Ashley! May I ask you where did you buy the knife Kylie uses? Thanks! A big hug
17:42 tell me why kylie poured that like a seasoned bartender? 😂
