Thank you for the post. I am planning to open up a home school. My pattern or curriculum in mind is to follow Montessori. The main reason is I love children and spending time with them just makes my mind calm and soothing. I have made few changes to the top floor in my home and have bought a basic Montessori classroom package(https://www.thinkamajigs.com/the-basics/) from the Montessori materials suppliers in Toronto. But was lagging with the arrangement and further follow-up.
Once again, thank you for the post. It’s full of ideas. Would these items suffix to start a toddler and preschool batch.

Thanks for your lovely blog. I’m planning to set up a small childcare center in Singapore and intend to use part of Montessori Practical Life materials as an enrichment. Generally, in Singapore parents loved sending their children to Montessori classroom environments as the Practical Life and Sensorial materials help to develop children’s concentration.

Thanks and have a good day.

Thanks so much for your kind comment, Katie! There’s so much you can do at home. It’s wonderful you’re starting early! If you haven’t seen the links at the bottom of my “About Montessori” page, there are resources there that should be very helpful, too: https://livingmontessorinow.com/about-montessori/. Good luck, and have fun! 🙂

Hi,
I just wanted to thank you for your wonderful blog! I am a young mom of two toddlers and am working to bring Montessori into our home. Where we used to live there was a Montessori school that took kids as young as 2.5 and I was very excited to enroll my girls there (it’s actually the same school my husband went to from the time he was 3-6. Same teacher too!). However we moved and I am now struggling to find a school to take them. My oldest should be able to get in next fall but my little one won’t be able to until at least the year after that and I don’t want her to miss out. So thanks again for your wonderful post, it is helping me to do right by my girls and be the best parent I can be. I love the Montessori philosophy and I hope to have a successful classroom set up in our home for them in the next few months.

Thanks!

Thanks for your comment, Mary! Actually, my children are adults now, too. I adore them as adults, although I do miss those early years. I also have a hard time parting with my Nienhuis catalogs with their beautiful materials … wonderful just to look at! 🙂
