Montessori was an advocate for wooden materials for the children. Montessori toys have simple design, however, they reflect the vision Maria Montessori had – helping to keep the child focused on the task rather than the object. Wood offers wider experience to a child through its grain, variety of smells, differing weights and sounds when tapped. Wood also attaches importance to nature, which in turn connects the child to the world around them.
These are the toys we picked so far. You can find them online, on Etsy or EBay
