***Montessori Method***
A funny spin on going from the high chair to a chair & table set.

Learning and applying as I go 0-3
Observation: Child had been sitting in highchair throwing food across the room.
My Question: Why?
My Answer: Communicating because he can't speak yet.
What is he saying? He is done with his food and wants out really bad, -food flying from chair into room...
Solution: Table and Chair set cut down to his size. Now he can get up when he is done and soon bus his own table.
Results:
*Very happy to sit down for meals.
*Doesn't through food anymore.
*Sense of independance (happy)
*Stretching concentration by thinking & remembering manners & habbits in a new way.
*Establishing order
*Coordinating movements
*place mat with outlines for placement. -He really likes this.

  • My 2 cents: less talking, eat with him and model what to do. The first time he gets up, 1 statement, then take plate.

    Why is baby not eating as well?

  • no problem, thanks for posting.

  • oops! I'm sorry.

  • wow! Rethom is your older child's name? This is a great post! I got to see how others young child has their meal.

    Baby is good too, sitting and waiting.
