Potty training Montessori way

Toilet learning - two steps forwards, one step back

Thank you from the underside of my heart of all of funny stories, tips, suggestions, your kind remarks and words of heat and encouragement regarding my post on travelling with a toilet learning toddler.
As I mentioned we weren't just travelling, we were travelling last minute, I was travelling with the boys without my husband (thus feeling extra vulnerable) and we were also grieving for member of the family who is no longer with us. Gosh, I'm having trouble holding back the tears . Just how did we go?

Montessori toys for 2 year old

For Kids 5 Years

Christmas Tree Triangle Puzzle.
Gingerbread Houses Family Puzzle. This puzzle was created to be utilized by a group of people with different skill levels as it has three different sized bits. I really like at Christmas to have a puzzle going on the table for everyone to contribute to and this puzzle would be ideal! It has 400 pieces.

Alphabet Puzzle Tote

If so, this is a really enjoyable activity that augments knowledge on the contours and kind of letters. I'd not do this in a way to teach kids their letters or to test them but to reinforce their knowledge. I'd contain letters they are assured with alongside letters they may be struggling with. This is really a basic task of putting the letters from an Alphabet Puzzle or Moveable Alphabet into a Mystery Bag and enabling the kid by making use of their hands as well as their sense of touch simply to identify each letter. Choose the letters from the Alphabet Puzzle (or Moveable Alphabet) and place these in the Mystery Bag without the kid seeing. Invite the kid over to sit down at a work mat or table. Encourage the child to place one or both hands within the bag and one at a time, without peeking, identify which letter they are holding.

Christmas Puzzles to Love - 2 to 5 Years

Here are a few of the very stunning and Montessori family friendly Christmas puzzles! It is all about stacking, sorting, sequencing, patterns, and discovering arrangement!
All these puzzles would work wonderfully in a tray or on a young child's work shelves. I really adore the natural timber puzzles. Don't forget about nesting dolls, they make fantastic decorations and kids love to stack, sort and put them away. The age ranges are a guide only.
