Is Montessori more than having wooden toys? What is Waldorf? And how do they apply to babies and toddlers? This is the one where Emma and Elliot chat about: education styles, imagination, sensory trays, being inspired by Bluey, avoiding plastic toys and electronics, how nurseries have changed, and our childhood experiences (and hopes) of school and the curriculum. Do you try to use elements of Montessori or Waldorf in your parenting? Have you heard of Montessori and Waldorf before, or was this all new?

Unwind on sleepless nights to a wholesome mix of parenting, humour, and crafting. We’re not here to provide answers but to share our experiences, explore how parenting has changed, and build an online community of parents for mutual support.

A fun, honest and unscripted conversation between Emma and Elliot on non-judgemental parenting and millennial-based topics, as we relax on an evening doing a craft or creative activity. 

We are a project in partnership with The Kairos Movement and supported by The Methodist Church, of which The Kairos Movement is a part.
