The learning materials awaken children to their internal identity and evokes a higher understanding of the mental physical and spiritual faculties that make them human. Leaving our children with a great appreciation for humanity and the world around them.
- Monti Kids
- for 0-3 materials
- they do not carry Practical Life materials
- this is a new company that Tracy (tracy.epps@wildflowerschools.org) has been researching. Feedback from Tracy: I found the materials to be beautiful, well-built, and appropriately sized down to make them more comfortable for infants and toddlers to grasp. Families will enjoy a subscription for eight sets (levels) that ships every three months to correspond to children's developmental readiness. Schools may opt to purchase all eight levels at once for under $2600. I endorse Monti Kids line without reservation!
