Straightforward and detailed guide to Montessori education for toddlers, including activities to do at home and ways to structure thr home environment to support Montessori learning. There are also sample scripts and ways to use positive language instead of just sayin 'no.'

Unfortunately, I was unable to open this file, which is very disappointing as I have recently started work in a Montessori establishment.

I loved this book! It was such a strong comprehensive review of how to bring montessori learning home for families. I loved the recommendations, images, and way the author explained the information.

Came into this with just the cursory information of Montessori and perhaps a dash of skepticism that I would get much out of this, but it was phenomenal. Lots of practical advice to implement immediately with pre-school/toddlers. While I don't intend to transform our home into a Montessori school with trays of activities or get rid of picture books with fantasy elements (our son loves books about dragons), I got a lot out of how to speak to your child and things to keep in mind about his development to reframe my expectations and patience.

I love learning more about children and toddlers. The Montessori concept is trendy nowadays and this book was really interesting. Indeed, I liked how it is explained from the first pages and I really like how practical this book is for parents and future parents. The author not only gives activities for learning, but also pratical examples at home for toddlers to be more and more independent.

The layout is well taken care of and it is easy to read. You can either read it from the start to the end or go bit by bit depending on the problem you encounter or what you want to learn.

I love the concepts of Montessori education, and this book explains them well. It feels a bit more like a book for teachers than a book for parents, though certainly parents can use the methods explained here as well. The book has a lovely layout.
