After 12 years of public charter school Montessori teaching, I am choosing to stay home and home school my children in the Montessori style. While in my heart, I would love to buy all the beautiful authentic materials, I know that is not our reality. I enjoy creating printable materials as close to the real thing as possible, that anyone can use in the home or classroom. Real, wood and authentic is best, but I hope my no frills, easy to print with lots of options materials help make Montessori possible in your home or classroom.
