How to create a Montessori-inspired children's room with Ikea items

More and more parents are looking for an environment in their homes that fosters the basic principles of the Montessori philosophy. A decoration according to this style of parenting that encourages the autonomy of the child, respecting their rhythms, and motivating knowledge based on manipulation.

It is very important that the furniture is of noble materials, such as natural pine wood, minimalist style, that is safe, and that allows the child to have everything at hand to be able to fend for himself. If you like the idea, we help you create a Montessori room for children with items that you can find in IKEA.

Children's table

This natural pine table combines with the stools and is ideal for the little ones. Perfect to paint, draw, play tea ... And the best, which has compartments in which you can place plastic boxes to store things like paintings, scissors, pencils ... Its price, 49.99 euros.

We put our #flisat table to good use yesterday, finally setting it up as #sensorybins Kinetic sand on one side and chickpeas on the other. Elijah didn't look twice at the sand because he's all about the chickpea life (the boy loves his hommus). I've scooped, I've poured, I've shaked. Yes the chickpeas went on the floor but he has been having a blast and well, they're easier to pick up than rice Super happy with this table

Wooden stool

The pine stools of the Ikea FLISAT collection match the table we see above and are very cute. Some tune them painting the legs to give them a Nordic touch and they are beautiful. Also ideal for putting on shoes or pants alone. They cost 14.99 euros.

Coat rack

And also from the same FLISAT collection of Ikea, a clothes rack with four cone-shaped knobs to prevent accidents and that the things that hang do not fall. You have to place it at your height so that children can hang coats, bags or whatever they need to keep everything organized. Its price, 5 euros.

Montessori bed

One of the stars of the room for kids is the Montessori bed, a bed on the floor to prevent falls and that gives the child independence to go to sleep and get up alone. Even if you see it with height, completely the opposite of what we are looking for, you can adapt the KURA reversible bed, which gives a lot of play, like a Montessori bed as we see below.

Lucas and Milena still prefer to sleep together in the bottom bunk #twinsroom #toddlerroom #kidsroomdecor #loftliving #projectjunior #toddlerroomdecor #kidsdesign #kidsinterior #kidsroominspo #ikea #ikeahack #kurabed

How? Simple. You put the mattress on the floor and leave the upper part free as a play or reading area. It costs 149 euros.

A mirror

New corner montessori in our living room ... With Luca I was left wanting to mount it for the distribution we had before but now I have seen the opportunity. It is a reading corner so that Luca already takes advantage of it and at the same time it will be the corner of the mirror with bar to stimulate the development of Nora's movement. At the moment we have put the Munari mobile that gave us @bertaconill But I just realized that we need a couple more mirrors to put them at ground level and that can be seen from their current stretched position You like ... #montessoriathome #montessori # espejomontessori #rincondelectura # racótou #aprenderjugando #munari

The mirror placed at its height is an important element in a Montessori room. So he can see himself while playing contributing to form a self-concept of himself within the environment The idea is to place it horizontally on a wall and short in height so that the child can be reflected in it. The NISSEDAL mirror of Ikea with the oak effect edge fulfills this function well and costs 29.99 euros, although you can also get another similar.

A blackboard

You can not miss the classic Ikea slate to encourage creativity in children. On the one hand it is a whiteboard to use markers and on the other, a blackboard to draw with chalk. Its price, 19.99 euros.

Mini kitchen

Hier ist das Ergebnis unserer gepimpten Kinderküche Euer Feedback in der Instastory war so, dass ich dieses Werk hier einmal mit Euch teilen mchte. Ich bin total stolz auf mich. Nicht weil die Küche so "perfekt" geworden ist (das ist sie nmlich ganz und gar nicht), sondern weil ich es geschafft habe, als vollkommener "do-it-yourself-honk" diese Kinderküche für Nicolas umzugestalten und aufzubauen. Zeit, Geduld und Liebe in solche Dinge zu invest, obwohl so vieles auf dem Weg schief gegangen ist… das ist eine Herausforderung. Doch wenn der kleine Knirps jetzt happy im Topf herum rührt und die Küche so schn mit dem Kinderzimmer harmoniert, dann hüpft vor Freude das MamaherzDas Video dazu ist jetzt online # linkinbio # duktig # kinderküche # ikea # ikeahack

Another element that I love for a children's room of this style is a toy kitchenette. The DUKTIG mini kitchen It allows children to venture into the world of gastronomy, where they can prepare their dishes, play chefs and invite friends and family to try them. At home my daughters have "cooked" many dishes there and have a very special affection. Its price 89 euros.
