We decided to home school for various reasons, and a very bad PS experience did not help matters.
The most important thing to me/us is that we love our children, home school and Montessori.
I want to say off the hop that I am learning as I go – I am not a Montessori expert. I am continually reading and researching the method. My children are 2 & 5 so we are finding our way through this together. I bought a set of the 3-6 manuals/ albums from Montessori Research and Development. We have made many materials, and also bought a large amount. I have spent a significant amount of time piecing this puzzle and have had many challenges, rewards and some setbacks trying to incorporate this learning method in our home. I have poured over the blogs of other Montessori moms out there and am so grateful they have chosen to be so honest, and share their experience knowledge and materials with the world.
I would also love to share some of what we have created here in our home for our children. The materials we have made are our interpretations of many of the amazing materials we have seen others make. I am continually inspired by Montessori & home school moms everywhere.
As I said our setup is not perfect, and I am still trying to find ways of practically housing the materials and creating a “children’s house” within our home. I have decided though that “it doesn’t need to be perfect, it just has to be”.
