Ours are still in amazing condition, but have only been used by our two children. I'm not sure how they would stand up in a class environment. We are looking at different options to produce some materials, and will post if this becomes viable for us to do in the future. <br /><br />I greatly appreciate your writing and asking. This is a material we have loved! <br />I wish you the very best in setting up your classroom!<br />CherineCherine Muirheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01107665808653181237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190462048494164843.post-25245621650084715802017-07-26T04:48:03.993-07:002017-07-26T04:48:03.993-07:00Good morning Cherine,

I've looked at countless vendors but they the ones I've found do not look aesthetically pleasing. I'm setting up my classroom for September. I don't have as much time to hand make the materials. Please let me know if it would be possible. Thank you. <br /><br />Kindly,<br />AndreaMontessori guidenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190462048494164843.post-30325595552213867062015-02-23T13:58:42.590-08:002015-02-23T13:58:42.590-08:00We have taken good care of ours, and store them ca...We have taken good care of ours, and store them carefully with foam drawer liner mats in between them. If you are worried about that plaster factor making them with modeling clay (not play dough) is a great alternative. Real modeling clay does not dissolve the way play dough will. I bought the trays at the dollar store, and the plaster was about $7 at Home Depot. My paint and clear coat was left over from other material making projects but would be about $5 ea. Depending on where you live, there is the cost of purchasing the plastic forms, taxes and shipping so for us it was a good choice to make them.Cherine Muirheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01107665808653181237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190462048494164843.post-39163563336123587412015-02-03T18:50:43.728-08:002015-02-03T18:50:43.728-08:00awesome. how is it lasting?

I'm trying to compare the cost of making to the cost of buying.

We did some early introductions with the trays, but will be using them again and going into more detail very soon:)Cherine Muirheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01107665808653181237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190462048494164843.post-14645459103036584632013-04-20T13:39:41.857-07:002013-04-20T13:39:41.857-07:00These look great!

I am thinking I couuld maybe do these :) I was considering JUST having my kiddos make them on their own with modeling clay when we covered this, and that would be a good idea, but this sounds easy enough that it might just work! Thanks for the idea!
