Happy first day of Kindergarten Kylie!!! 🥺🥺🥺

This is really helpful. Going through the store gives a helpful visual. I'd be happy to see more of these, even in vlog style and at different stores like Target or dollar stores.

Happy first week of kindergarten, Kylie!!! I hope you all are adjusting well :) Also love to see your thrift store finds. It's so great to remind people that Montessori isn't just expensive trendy furniture - it's a lifestyle!

[margaretjones]

I love how accessible you made Montessori activities.

[lindseymakes]

Yes! I love buying breakable 2nd hand.

There are always tons of small vases for flower arranging too! Some are pretty wild so I spray paint white.

Also remember, when you are done with these items… donate them back!

[briannae]

Love this so much! Would love it to be a series!! Your thrift store is fantastic!

[annafcates]

Aww I love this it was kind of like a vlog feel, I hope your girls are having wonderful experiences at school and what a great idea everything you showed I got flooded with ideas especially with studding curriculum and activity planning right now.

Oh almost a kind of empty nest! Hope it means much more “me time, ” I hope! 😊 Had a tip to pass on regarding glass (maybe ceramic too?): some vintage/old kinds may have lead from the way they were made back in the day…. Love the ideas, thanks for posting!! Will have to browse our thrift stores soon with these in mind.

So exited to see another upload, hope you and your family are well. Such great content as always!

Great video! Thrift shopping is my fav! I’ve actually been cutting back on it lately because I always find so many things—so this video gave me my thrift shopping fix without bringing home any more “stuff”! 😜 But seriously, as you mention in the video, there are so many great finds if you know what you’re looking for. 😊
Fun video! Thanks for sharing!

Loved this! What a beautiful thrift store with affordable options and endless possibilities. It reminded me of TJ Maxx, I miss the states! The practical life options were the best. I wish I thrifted more in my daughter’s earlier years but even going along with you on this shopping excursion, I was able to gather a multitude of activity ideas: origami (which I loved as a kid, thank you for the reminder!), sink or float, schema-related activities, sifting, pouring, sorting, pretend play, etc.

Awesome content. Thank you!

Love this video! I’ve thrifted almost all of my materials and I try to encourage moms to do the same. There are such wonderful options at thrift stores!

I love second hand, just a little reminder to be careful what you buy though. Many older, and even some newer items, have lead paint which is very toxic. Lead safe mama has tested a lot of items on her blog you could do a quick search before you buy.

Thank you for this vid!! I’ve definitely noticed that thrift stores have a great selection of wooden items because they are generally older when it was more common for things to be made of wood instead of plastic

[dianeschmidt]

I LOVE this!!! I thrift every weekend and I’ve been practicing all I’ve learning with Montessori from you with my 2 year old niece.

Edit: also I would love for you to make this a series! I think the knowing what to look for portion is where I struggle

[sueyates]

I sure hope Kylie has a fun kindergarten year. Thanks for the video Ashley very helpful.

[rebekah_bradley]

Great timing! I’m hopefully going to the thrift store tomorrow and I desperately need some things for my 2 year old!

[michellebustos]

Love a bargain! In the UK we have tons of thrift/charity shops. Thank you and hope Kylie has an amazing 1st day.
My niece had her first day of middle school yesterday and they kept them locked down after school due to crazy Colorado storms! 😳

[philippapay]

Like your bleached hair parted more to the side. Loved that tissue box you thrifted. I collect pitchers. Thanks for including us.

Thank you. Love that you did this vlog.
