Let us talk childism this week. Children deserve Let us talk childism this week. Children deserve respect. All children deserve respect. Period. I still think Vadivelu said it better when he said "ungalukku vanda ratham, engalukku vandha thakkali chutneya?" (Loose translation for non tamizh folks- You call it blood if you get hurt, but if I get hurt, it's tomato chutney.) #ammatoday #raisekindhumans #breakthecycle #childism #raiseyourvibration #consciousparenting #respectfulparenting #gentleparenting_memes #gentleparenting #parentingdaily #chennaimoms #indianeducator #healthyboundaries
10 years from now, the baby will not remember who 10 years from now, the baby will not remember who held them, but the new mom/ parent will always remember who held them. The Montessori from birth workshop is my most favourite offering, a way of holding the new parent/ parent-to-be in the best way I can. Who is this workshop for? -If you're a parent-to-be or awaiting a new baby in the family, we discuss how to prepare the physical and psychological environment. -For new parents, it offers insight into the needs of the baby in the first year and ways to support them. - For anyone wanting to understand the baby from a Montessori perspective. FAQ: -There are month wise story highlights on my profile that take you through some materials and activities. The workshop offers insight on the why, when, how and alternatives. -The video will be available to watch again for 5 days post workshop. -Yes, it would be lovely to have other caregivers join us. In fact, I recommend all primary caregivers in your family view it. - I do not plan on repeating this particular workshop until November. Hence, leaving the link on for 24 hours, after which it will automatically expire. :) Please swipe to see topics covered, or Workshop highlight to see past reviews, and do share with anyone who may find it useful. . . #ammatoday #ammatoday_workshop #montessoriindia #montessoriworkshop #montessoriathome #montessorifrombirth #montessorifromthestart
Story Time: By the time I was in my third trimest Story Time: By the time I was in my third trimester, I was 200% prepared, with what materials to buy, which ones to courier from our storage, which ones my husband would bring when he visited. I was excited about this, because although we montessori'd from the start with V, we didn't have access to many of these materials, and now, I had helped design some of these. But then of course, two weeks before V2 arrived, the national lockdown was declared. I was supremely annoyed that none of my plans would materialize. And then, was promptly put in my place when even postpartum necessities were hard to come by, let alone wooden toys. Anyhow, here is the thing, while courier services were hit for months to come, I recognised that while the materials, toys and books are really lovely, carefully made, serve a purpose and super useful for babies, YOU- the prepared adult will always Trump all the toys in the adult. When you operate from a place of peace, preparedness and open mindedness, you notice the really important stuff- the tiny milestones that actually matter, your baby's true needs, ways to incorporate your culture, your authentic self and needs. Swipe for some tangible examples. Montessori doesn't have to be expensive, or inaccessible. As long as you have access to your inner instinct, you will always have access to Montessori parenting. . . #ammatoday #ammatoday_montessori #montessoriindia #montessoribaby #montessorifrombirth #montessorifromthestart #themontessoribaby #montessorifamily #consciousparenting #gentleparenting #respectfulparenting #montessoritoys #montessoriathome
