MONTESSORI OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES - Practical Life Skills

Living in South Florida, we have the privilege of perfect weather all year around. Sometimes it's a little hot out, but that's why we drink coconut water! First and foremost, always apply sunblock, even if the sun is not out. Sun exposure is fine, in moderation, just like everything else in life. When I bring Christopher outdoors once a day for an activity, he seems to nap better and his mood is always better. There is so much to do outside and you do not need toys. Nature provides all the tools you need for your toddler to have fun and promote creativity. Playing outdoors lets them create their own activities and helps approach the world differently. It also helps them create their own SELF. Montessori's perspective was that all children must create themselves & they do so using the material they find in the world around them. This could be as simple as a coconut or a rock! As parents, we should prepare the environment and let the child explore.

MOMessori Toys - MUST HAVe

When Christopher was first born my husband and I decided we wanted to raise our child through the Montessori method. There is so much out there and it becomes confusing.

We loved: delivery every three months and cost. Every three months they send us a huge box of new toys with instructions on how to introduce the toys. It is very important to introduce toys one by one. They send you videos on how to do this so do not panic. The cost might seem much. It is $297.00 every three months. Which yes is a lot of money but let's break it down. If these are the only toys that your child is playing with it really is not a lot of money. All those plastic toys on the market are just as expensive. You are basically spending $100 per month on Monti Kids Toys which for our budget, fit fine. These are wood...

Let's face it. Taking on breastfeeding is a job. Breastfeeding is a blessing to give to your child and I believe it is the best source of nutrition, but it is a job, plain and simple. You will take on the duty of being a mom and you will be committed to offering nutrition every hour when your baby is firstborn. This is not going to be easy but as Moms, we adapt and we rise to the occasion. After Christopher was born, my boobs became the milk machine. I had no clue how to breastfeed even though I watched tons of YouTube videos. When it was finally my turn to figure this out I felt like I forgot everything that was taught and watched. I will explain here the honest truth that is not talked about much. I will tell you why you should do it and maybe this will help wrap your mind around the decision you are trying to make. You might be reading this because you have decided to quit, contemplating on quitting, or eager to start. Please do not let this discourage you, it...
