I already have a post on how to make your own Montessori materials. I’m using this post to organize all the DIY Montessori materials posts I’ve published. I realized I’ve published too many for you to find them easily by using the category or tags in the sidebar.
I’ll be adding to this post whenever I publish a new DIY Montessori materials post. You’ll find resources here for homeschools or schools. There will be a new tab under the “About Montessori” tab at the top of the site with links to some of my main Montessori resource posts.
