Baby Unit

Teachers go through sensitive periods also and when I had my children so many years ago I was compelled to create a unit on babies. As a new mother I was given so many magazines from the doctor's office and through the mail that it was a cry for a new unit to be made. You can image how much children love this unit. All of these things are on the shelf at once after giving lessons on them one at a time.

Easy Xmas Through the Years

Twenty-five years of Christmas crafts in my files proven to be easy, fast, well loved and successful for parent parties. 






































Holiday Insets

The Montessori Insets are one of the most creative works in a Montessori classroom. Not only do the templates strengthen pencil control but they can be the beginning of artistic invention.
Here are examples of masters I have made for my students to copy. The kids love these and will do more than one at a sitting to put in book form. I use all types and colors of paper with the insets. This is also a hit laid out on a table for a party for parents. Please copy these and make masters for your own children.
