June 11, 2021 Episode 46 - Montessori is a way of life
✨Montessori is a way of life - not just pretty shelves!😍

Montessori is a way of life, not just an educational method. You can be a Montessori Parent from the respect, nurturing and guidance you offer to your child; without having any Montessori materials and with having an untidy home.

Thank you for joining me! In this Live we tried to unpick a few of the misconceptions about Montessori education and Montessori in the home. We discussed starting with the premise of respect as our foundation for our family.

I spoke about starting with the preparation of our physical space being our starting point because once we have a home that is simple, ordered and accessible then our child will show us what their needs are and where their interests lie. A prepared environment allows us to 'follow the child', which will tell us everything we need to know.

Another point we covered was how Montessori Parenting and Conscious Parenting are interwoven; parenting calls us to become aware of our own fears and/or prejudices, and invites us to not pass these down to the next generation. It is challenging work and part of the preparation of an adult in a Montessori environment, and thus our role as parents/caregivers.

June 11, 2021 Episode 45 - Trusting our inner wisdom
✨ Trusting our inner wisdom - accessing our self confidence in parenting'💕

In this Live we looked at two possible ways of accessing our inner wisdom so we can have more trust and self confidence in ourselves and our parenting; journalling and listening to our body's intelligence.

All of the parenting advice in the world can only work in tandem with the guidance that comes from our hearts.
All of the answers we seek are inside of us.

June 11, 2021 Episode 43 - The Joy and Importance of Food Preparation with Young Children
In this LIVE I gave three reasons why we should involve our children in the joy of food preparation:

- supports hand/eye coordination, concentration and fine motor skills
- promotes autonomy
- empowers picky eaters

We also discussed my Wooden Montessori Knife, so that our children have the child sized tools that they need at their fingertips.
And my forthcoming 90 Minute Online Workshop on Montessori Mealtimes, how to give our children the gift of a love of good food.

June 11, 2021 Episode 42 - How to calm our child when they are angry or frustrated
✨How to support emotional regulation when our child is angry or frustrated❤

During this InstaLive we looked at why our young children get so angry and frustrated, and how we can help them to calm down.

We discussed:
> How tantrums/frustrations are a normal part of development, they are a healthy discharge of emotions.
> The reasoning part of the brain is not developed until much older, so trying to reason with an angry child is counterproductive.
> Staying present, emotionally and physically to provide support is more important than anything else.

For this Top Tip Tuesday on Instagram Live we discussed food, eating and mealtimes:

We discovered that developing a lifelong passion for food. It's not really about how much they eat, it's about the experience; supporting our child in autonomy around food, preparation and becoming an active participant in their home. ❤️

June 11, 2021 Episode 39 - Meditation for children - what are the benefits and how to start
In this session we discussed introducing simple meditation techniques for even our very young children; just one of the tools we can have in our parenting toolbox to support our children on their lifelong journey of emotional regulation.
This was a really simple breathing technique for our children (and us) to bring awareness to how out breath moves in our body. A great technique for nap or bedtime to be practised regularly so that it becomes part of your and their daily experience.

Thank you for joining me!
