Art
from the heart
We scoured the arts and crafts books, picked the brains of our Montessori experts and came up with a host of unusual and fun craft projects that are developmentally appropriate for your little one.
Children as young as two will enjoy activities like coffee filter flowers and making home-made clay.Older children will be fascinated with fan folding, making a pinata and more. All are easy an inexpensive to set up and home. And our little teachers will show you and your child exactly how! |
 |
As always, no adults appear in these sequences and if any verbal instruction is given, it is in the voice of the little teacher talking directly to your child at home.
