Description

Montessori parents can give the impression that they do it all: organized home, tidy bedrooms, carefully ordered trays and activities. Sometimes it seems like Montessori sets the bar really high — so high that it feels unattainable for a busy parent.    My New Life host Jessica Rolph speaks with Kylie D’Alton, an Australian mom that has gone a long way toward making Montessori principles more accessible. Kylie is the author of the popular blog How We Montessori, and in today’s episode, she shares valuable tips on how to bring Montessori into our homes in ways that don't involve accumulating more stuff.   Key Takeaways: [1:06] Thinking like a Montessori parent. [2:50] The benefits of observing and allowing children to experience something for themselves over correcting or teaching. [4:51] Kylie explains how she introduces the real before the abstract and the benefits to your toddler’s development. [6:35] What sort of things does Kylie involve her toddler in? [10:25] How did Kylie take the Montessori approach to potty training?  [13:26] Kylie shares some of her favorite memories of Montessori learning at home. [14:43] Jessica reviews the highlights of her conversation with Kylie.   Mentioned in this episode: Brought to you by Lovevery.com How We Montessori
