The Christmas season is fast approaching and we’ve already seen an increase in questions about Montessori gift ideas in our Christian Montessori Network Facebook group! Each year we like to share some of our favorite Montessori items and this year we are taking a look a ideas Montessori materials through the ages.
I wanted to make sure each person on the CMN team was represented, so all of the materials below have been personally suggested by one of the team members!
Also remember, follow your child and introduce each of these items as your child seems ready. They may be ready for some of these items earlier or later than the ages they are listed under.
Birth to 1 Years Old
There are so many wonderful Montessori baby items designed for your infant. Here are some of our favorites.
Natural Wooden Baby Development Set
Wood Stacking and Nesting Rainbow Bowls
Toddler Years (1-3 Years Old)
Helping Hands – Montessori By Mom Toolbox
Preschool Years (3-5 Years Old)
Montessori 1-100 Consecutive Numbers Board
Elementary Years (6+)
Since most of us on the team are just entering this age range for Montessori activities, we don’t have any specific suggestions. However many the previous items can still be used. And you can check out Montessori Services, which has many wonderful Montessori products and materials.
