| Customer Reviews: A must-have for Montessori parents July 20, 2009 K. Bergsagel (Virginia USA) This book is produced and distrbuted by the North American Montessori Teachers' Association (montessori-namta organization).
This full-color, 27-page booklet encourages rethinking the home from the perspective of how adults and children, especially preschool children, can live together harmoniously while maintaining different goals for development. Full of practical ideas, it nevertheless emphasizes each family's uniqueness and individual style. The attractive illustrations provide concrete suggestions as well as a springboard for the discussions and explorations prompted by the included study guide.
An excellent (and BRIEF) overview... December 29, 2007 Heather Degeorge (North Plainfield, NJ United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
When you start trying to understand Montessori, it can be overwhelming to navigate the countless resources "out there". I found this book and when I bought it online, I had no idea how brief it was (but then understood the low price!). THANK GOODNESS! It was an incredibly easy read that changed life in our home immediately. The ideas were so simple and the explanations for why you should implement them were brief, to the point, understandable and very logical.
I read the whole book in one night with two children and much sleep deprivation. It took my a week of stealing time here and there to implement the ideas. My son's behavior changed DRASTICALLY for the better within two weeks. I can't say enough for the simplicity of this book for arranging your home life to encourage your child's development.
