When I saw a new Hapa Family video:😮 When I saw that it was a bedroom tour:😲 When I started watching and saw the cuteness:😍

I'm super impressed with how thought out your safety features are! Also, just love your videos in general. I found you last week and am in love with your direct style of sharing information and how well spoken you are! Alot of the features of Montessori are making sense like they never have before. I can watch your videos, be informed, take what I need, and NOT feel shamed or guilted for not doing everything "right". This is so wonderful. You are a favorite resource!!!

I can't wait until I get a bigger apartment so my toddler can have her own room, this gives me so many ideas!

Don't wait for everything just do it but a little chair & make room for the room that's well on way.💜

As a native mandarin speaker from Taiwan, I’m thrilled to see that your daughter reads mandarin books! ❤

I've been looking for a little reading chair for my 21 month old, but am not crazy about the character ones I've found. Mia's chair is perfect! Thank you! Your videos are so inspiring.

I love those magnetic art hangers! They will make rotating artwork so easy.

Perfect timing I’m about to set up my toddlers room! 🥰🤍

Lovely! 😍 It seems like it was yesterday that I was watching Mia's baby bedroom tour... ❤️

Thank you so much for every video Ashley🙏🌼 I love the dotted wall with the macrame thing on it. honestly I don't know why this channel doesn't have a million+ subscribers🌟

I saw your videos about a year ago and ran into this one just today and I'm kvelling, she's gotten so big. Love the wall art and the tiny wardrobe.

Can you give ideas for smaller spaces? Where/how to set up a play area in a small living room. How to implement Montessori practices when both parents work full-time schedules. Just curious, love your content!

Her room is absolutely beautiful! Your girls are so lucky to have you and mike as parents!😊

I love the mirror and shelf so much!!

LOVE the smart bulb and reading corner. But wait....what.....no day time nap for Mia!!?? I’m hoping my 22 month old has a nap until he starts school. 😂😂😆

Thank you for the video! Its given me several ideas ☺ I love that smart bulb remote and the little reading nook

This is perfect timing! We are hoping for baby 2 soon and want to get my 20 month old in a toddler bed/room over the next 6-12 months and I’m overwhelmed and don’t even know where to start!

We love all your videos thank you so much!

Such great ideas! I'll definitely incorporate those in the future!

I love your channel so much, you help make everything much sore simple and understandable

omg! the light remote idea is so smart!

I am your subscriber since Mia was 6 month old. You inspired me a lot. The girls get so big now

Happy birthday, Kylie and Mia!

♥️♥️♥️♥️love your content !!!

Omgosh that wardrobe is too precious!

My daughter turned 1 in October.... She was born a micro- preemie and I am having such a hard time sleeping away from her 😔 but I’m so excited to use all this information ^.^ it’s kind of encouraging

Love the video . Beautiful room

you're an INCREDIBLE mama, Ash!!!

I have the same baby gate and my 15-month-old (at the time) started to climb it lol so that didn't work out. I'm off to purchase that remote for a smart light! I love your videos so much and you have truly changed the way I raise my son.

Wow it’s almost like I needed this hahhaa

Thanks for the update! Would you be able share how Mia gets in and out of the keekaroo high chair? Are there specific chairs you recommend for toddlers at the family table? TIA!

Love your videos. Informative and inspiring. I would love a video on how you transitioned Kylie to no naps when you still had her at home. With the pandemic still up in the air, we are not doing formal preschool yet and would love to prepare for the transition to no naps. Thank you.

Hi Ashley Thank you so much for inspiring many of us to follow Montessorie practice . Could you post a new video on potty training, and let us know how you potty trained Mia. Thanks

Thanks for sharing! Can you do a short video on when you stopped daytime naps with Mia, as well as what her new bedtime is now with no naps. We have a toddler and are still doing daytime naps. Would love to hear your story on this transition! Thank you!!!

Could you do a video on top 5/10 parenting books you’ve enjoyed or found useful. Especially now that you’re writing your own book I’d love to know the ones behind the inspiration.

Here againnnnn ! ❤️❤️❤️

happy birthday to the girls (soon!) :) I learn so much from following your channel with our 22 month old (which decides to not nap anymore so the curtain comment hit a chord lol)

New camera looks awesome also!

That chair is precious! I've been looking for something like that to add to our playroom reading nook! Question for you on the floor bed-did you have to do anything about drafts or cool air on the floor? Our house is drafty and has laminate, so the floor is chilly in the winter. I've been delaying the floor bed transition because of that but it is something I really want to incorporate.

Love this so much! I’m a Montessori teacher for infants and just loved this room. Do you have a work rotation system that you use to rotate out her works every so often? Only curious big this is something that you do as well. Great video! I’ll be subscribing. ☺️

Love this video! The Montessori way of teaching seems really great for kids! If you want something good for your kids to watch, feel free to put on our diverse representative children's songs that feature all kinds of family make-ups!

Where did you get her bed frame? I’m obsessed!

Love all the great ideas..how did you get her to play by herself in the mornings as opposed to waking you guys up? Sooo curious

Yea super. Post more videos about how to teach toddlers. We are not native speakers. Give some ideas about dual language development

Your video is super helpful. Thank you for sharing where i can buy the furniture.

I’d love to know more about naps and how you knew when to stop daytime naps. Do they go to bed at night a little bit earlier?

You gotta post Kylie's vlog (from the sewing lessons vlog) seperate! Literally the cutest minute of my life

Ooo how did you get the decals to stick to your textured walls? I want to do something similar.

I don’t usually watch your Montessori vlogs because my kids are a decade older than yours, but I loved this tour. I watch all of your family vlogs because I remember when my girls were that age and I feel like I get to relive that stage. I also have a 10 year old boy. So one more than you. Anyway, I am now interested in whether Montessori can be done with older children. I wish I had known about this, and I feel that my 12 year old would benefit if there is something like this for her.

No daytime naps?! I’m so worried my 21 month old is heading that way but 🤞🏼 I hope not!! ☺️ I love the inspiration. Thank you for sharing!

Hi! I wanted to know advice on keeping toys in bedroom vs. in another common area in the home. Does it distract kids from naps/sleeping?

How would you work with a double sliding door closet?

Im starting to look at how to set up my son's toddler room. He is one. Which wardrobe set up do you recommend when just starting out? Do you think that you could use Kylie's set up for a younger age or is it worth purchasing both over the years?

I am ordering the sprout bed with your code! Do you have the 1 low/ 1 high version or the 2 low ?

Does Mia have the Twin sized floor bed? What did you look for in a mattress?

How did you teach Mia to turn on the light in the mornings and that she was allowed to play with her toys? Or was this something she simply realized herself? I haven’t attempted the lamp setup but we do keep some toys in her room, there’s been very few times where she will get up and play. She will wait on her bed for us and I’m not sure why, because she’s definitely allowed to play in the mornings

Her room is so beautiful! Couple of questions How do you change shelf activities in her bedroom? My kid would get all excited about new things and will play instead of going to sleep. When did Mia started to play in the morning by herself?

@Ineverusemychannel

3 жыл бұрын

I don’t have a child yet but what time of day do you replace items and how many at once? My (again, childless) assumption would be if you change out one item at a time and do it in the morning then the kid is less likely to have the Christmas effect of excitement and have plenty of time throughout the day to focus on the single new item. I think the opinion of this channel would also be that if the child keeps itself up to play after you put it to bed that you should check on the child periodically and put them back to bed or let them play until they put themselves to bed. I think the consensus is you should guide the kid but not force them, that way they learn what’s best for them intuitively. Don’t know if this helps but it’d be a great video topic.

@@Ldawg42069 no. Sometimes they don’t. What they need is a routine and to keep an eye/ear on them and any time they get up, put them immediately back to bed. Eventually, they’ll understand the routine & what’s expected. But if a kid wants to play and is left on their own, they’ll likely build that habit, not grow out of it.

how do you like the mattress? I am buying Kura Bed and still cant decide which mattress I should get for my daughter to sleep comfortable. Between Zinus vs Lucid vs Linenspa. Do you have any recommendations?

Do the sprout beds come with a mattress?

When do they stop taking daytime naps? I thought around 3 or 4 years .. isn’t she still young not to take a nap?

What type of plant did you put in your toddler's room?

What's happening question! How do you help a preschooler who shuts down when frustrated? My son is quick to give up and throw a tantrum when he is unable to do something correctly (ex- drawing a picture) or if told he cannot do something he wants to do? Also, how do you help a non verbal toddler work through frustrations?

she said it was twin size in the last video she did on it :)

I remember Kylie wearing that dress with the mustard-colored skirt that's hanging in the closet. Does Mia still end up sleeping on her floor instead of her bed or is she more consistent at sleeping in her bed as she's getting older? Also, when you mentioned getting her a comforter at some point, my FIRST thought was "Oooh. I could knit the girls throw blankets for their beds." Hahaha. If you were local, I'd probably give it a lot more consideration.

Hi Ashley, I just reviewed your courses and I can only see Montessori up to 36 month old. But how about older kids? We have almost five years old. Please tell me we are not too late? ;)) And same for positive discipline - is it for babies/toddlers? Or can it also be applicable to older kids?

Did you have any issues about mia crawling near the door and staying there when she was months old? That's my fear because my baby might crawl near the door or stay there and thereby making us unable to open the door from the outside

I allow my 3 year old the freedom to leave her room, but I think it def depends on your home setup, safety concerns, and your child’s temperament. ;) also, Kylie sometimes gets nosebleeds in the middle of the night and needs to come to our room for assistance. So that’s part of the reason that we need to allow her that freedom.

She’s always been really good about going to sleep as soon as she is genuinely tired. When she was younger, sometimes she would stay up for a bit and play and then go to sleep, but usually at nighttime she’s *ready* to zonk out. So playing in her room usually happens in the mornings only! ;)

I love your videos! Thank you so much for all the wonderful content. I put my son in his floor bed when he was 18 months and he loves it. He is now 22 months and just learned how to open the door. How did you handle this situation with Kylie or plan to handle it with Mia? We also had a baby gate up but he somehow figured out how to knock it down.

Do both ur kids have independent rooms? If I have a 7 yr boy n 18m baby girl to share room. how do I set the room?

@Ineverusemychannel

3 жыл бұрын

I think the big difference would just be safety and accessibility. Anything that’s appropriate for the 18m to use should be low down and all furniture should be secured to the wall. While the bed in this room is open I might choose a bed that has a low gate for the youngest child just to avoid having the 7yr old sleepwalk or roll into it by accident (my brother was a sleepwalker around that age). White noise machines while the baby sleeps may help disguise noise the 7yr old makes while prepping for bed or playing. The gate on the door may prove important since the 7yr old can open the door. Maybe get a gate that the 7yr old can learn to open or one that is low enough for him to step over. I would probably keep the beds on opposite sides of the room to reduce the sleeping habits of one affecting the other but toys would be centralized to encourage learning at different levels. If you have space, floor cushions instead of a chair would be accessible for both and portable. The set up really depends on the room itself but as long as everything is secure and everyone can reach age appropriate activities, I don’t think the rest matters much.

I am just crazy for Mia's bedroom chair. Do they make them for adults? Her room is delightful.
