Maria Montessori believed that children were attracted to beauty. And, I think that any child placed in a room with beautiful objects quickly comes to agree with her. There is so much beauty in this world and giving a bit to children can be so rewarding, especially when you make it with your own hands.
I love making materials for my children. They are often some of our most beloved materials. So, today I wanted to share some of my favorite handmade Montessori and Montessori-friendly material finds. I have such great respect for the artisans that create materials for children like this. It's just so amazing to me.
