  More than 80 years ago, Maria Montessori recognized the importance of a child's earliest experiences in paving the way for educational and personal fulfillment. Ahead of her contemporaries she created a whole educational system for the pre-school years. In this book, the author brings the Montessori method into the home. The book includes simple projects that fit into the normal daily routine of toddlers and young children. Starting with the home and gradually moving out into the local environment, each project shows how simple games and activities can provide the building blocks for language development, mathematics, science and arts and crafts, while stimulating the child's natural sense of curiosity and sense of fun.
