This is so practical and just great, Nicole! I can lean a bit toward the "purist" side of things at times, but I totally agree with using what you have - there is NO need to go crazy buying. We all do what we can, and simple is beautiful! Thanks for writing this! I'll be sharing :)

Thank you very much! This is helpful. I am still overwhelmed with the number of options for our almost 2 yo tots. Not sure how many activities to present them with weekly. As a follow up to this post, maybe you could do a post on a sample weekly activity grid for a child? I know we are to follow the child's lead based on their interests, and this is what stomps me. If they are into vehicles-do I give them all activities (sensory, language, parts for toy building) based on vehicles only? They've also learned their colors-do we work on colors, too? They need to be learning shapes/sizes-do I keep those activities on the shelf as well? Also, practical life and courtsey snd backyard exploration/gross motor skills, fine motor skills, books-it becomes a mountain of activities for me on top of my standard household management. I think a specific wekly example would be helpful

I am approaching reading books and explaining/interacting with them as a vocabulary building exercise, then at age 3- start incorporating standard montessori exercises?? Timeline for ages 1-3, 3-7 would be helpful too! Just basic ones. I just need to concentrate on 1 stage at a time. They grow so quickly that I am struggling to keep up with their developmental needs!!

Thank you SO much! This is exactly what I needed to hear :) I have felt overwhelmed and a bit intimidated by the Montessori purists. I know I have a lot to learn, but I am having SO much fun exploring the Montessori principles. Thanks for sharing! This post gives me courage to keep going! :) ~ Visiting from Mama's Happy Hive Blog :)
