A few years ago, at the end of the school year, an incident happened between a teacher and some high school students. She said, he said, they said … and the whole thing became huge.
Rumours where spread and soon, pretty much everybody was talking about it.



I walked into the class to find the students kind of upset and the atmosphere edgy.

I admit holding my breath while my 7,5-month-old was chewing raisins.
Although we are into the Baby-Led Weaning style, watching her eating raisins was too much for me.
Now I am totally a believer! How happy and confident a baby is when they get to choose what/ how much/ how fast to eat.
Apparently, babies know what's best for themselves (don't we all?)

This classic Montessori mobile is simple yet beautiful.
It moves smoothly in the tiniest breeze and won't overstimulate the infant.

We introduce it to the baby at 5 weeks.
We present it when the baby is calm, well fed and aware.

Making this mobile was easy and fun- the best part is how much Lydia enjoys it!
