Although proper children's toys are very important, the most valuable item we provide is the 3-12+ Montessori overview, the book "Child of the World: Montessori, Global Education for Age 3-12" (GB100). We recommend it to anyone looking at this site, teenagers, parents, grandparents, educators, everyone.

Scientific exploration is what a child is naturally engaged in all day long. Checking weights and distances, examining objects, experimenting with water, sand, mud. Every time a child arranges blocks in a row, or from larger to smaller, or places sliced carrots in a pattern on a plate, he is using the math brain. Children at a very early age have a natural tendency to order and count, to match like objects, to love math. To love math.
