Montessori materials are NOT toys, but educational materials. Proper use requires appropriate training.
Montessori materials may contain small, rough, sharp, or other elements that could cause injury or damage if used improperly.
It may therefore only be used by children under the supervision of appropriately trained persons and in an appropriate environment.
At the turn of the century, in a poor quarter of Rome, in the very first House of Children (Casa dei Bambini), a few slum children revealed to Dr. Montessori the spiritual grandeur of the human spirit. From the intensely poetic and philosophical, to the simple truths based on scientific observation, this book has inspired thousands and captures the thrilling moments of the early days of the Montessori movement.
