We've been working on taking the Montessori approach at home and have been reorganizing our kitchen and living room to make it more inspiring while encouraging independence. Willem always helps with dinner but mostly the measuring and pouring (and tasting), but now he's cutting and peeling veggies as well. He is most excited about being able to use sharp knives and scissors now.
Willem is in a phase where he needs his naps but has so many other things he'd rather do. Most days he still naps but other days he spends that time re-decorating his room with hangers, baby wipes and bedding as he works to make his room "clean and beautiful". On post-call days, Willem and Jason have been napping together. So cute!!
Willem and Oom Rik have been working on decorating these trains for weeks now and they have been the birthday gift that just keeps on giving. Willem's train has at least 10 layers of paint and he just keeps re-designing it and enjoys every moment of the experience.
