Very Excellent Habits

Minimalism with Kids - False News?


Listen Later

This episode is listener Laura who asked me to expand on my minimalism, particularly when it comes to kids. I have one kid and she’s nearly three (that's just for context) but we've successfully lived a relatively minimalist life with her so far.

This episode covers;

  • Toys
  • Clothes
  • Babies
  • Toddlers
  • Essentials
  • Other bits and pieces like hats and water bottles

I've included a little bit about Montessori (we're not hardcore into that philosophy we just like a lot of the methodologies and that kind of adds to our brand of minimalism), some behavioural methods we follow and my ultimate question. 'Is the result of allowing this annoying or dangerous?' and how the answer will dictate whether or not I will go to battle with my kid over it. 

This week's bonus is a video tour of our kid's stuff with a resource list - both of those are available to Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/veryexcellenthabits
