Minimalist Baby Play Space TOUR (How to keep them out of the Lego!)


Minimalist Baby Play Space TOUR (How to keep them out of the Lego!)

The Parenting Junkie takes you on a minimalist baby play space tour. There are a lot of minimalist baby moms in the comments, looking for ways to make a minimalist baby playroom. So I invite you on my playroom tour on my journey of minimalism with kids. Anyone can do this, as it requires only minimalist baby toys and the bare minimalist baby essentials. When you design your play space baby area, and you want a minimalist baby room, even for the youngest minimalist newborn… you’ll find by watching this minimalism with kids tour that play begins at day one. Here’s an Ikea Trofast hack for all those using the Ikea Trofast system to make independent play baby safe from older siblings legos. Minimalism and toys anyone? One of my favorites is our baby indoor swing. Download your free play space design guide below, and start cultivating independent play now. Independent sibling play is possible for the minimalist mom and minimalist parenting will be a key part.
