The giveaway is now closed. See update after the Rafflecopter form for the announcement of the 3 winners!
Montessori Print Shop is offering $60.49 worth of Montessori materials for $19.95 to everyone who purchases the Montessori at Home! Materials Bundle (a steal)!
I’ve just emerged from being absorbed in John Bowman’s newly revised e-book Montessori at Home: The Complete Guide to Doing Montessori Early Learning Activities at Home.
Montessori at Home e-book
This is a book you can totally lose track of time with. Even if you’re an experienced Montessorian, there are so many links to videos, articles, and other online resources that you can spend hours discovering new resources and revisiting sites that have become like old friends.
And those are just the links! Here are some of the things you can find in Montessori at Home:
- 296 pages filled with helpful Montessori content
- Introduction to Montessori education
- Ideas on how to get started using Montessori activities at home right away (with your child’s help – a feature I appreciate)
- Information about the materials you’ll need and where you can find them (with an amazing number of links throughout the book)
- Directions for making materials that can be made easily at home
- Over 250 early-learning activities with lots and lots of photos and links to helpful articles online
- Printable materials (pages 254-296)
It’s easiest to see what the e-book is really about by seeing some of the content for yourself:
- If you want more information about the book, I have 3 excerpts from the new edition of Montessori at Home in these two posts: Activities with Marbles and Golf Tees and Building a Flashlight and Pipe Building.
- Here’s a link to many sample pages. (Note: While you’re there, check out all the information at the new Montessori at Home site and blog!)
John Bowman also has a condensed version of the e-book available in paperback. It’s titled Help Your Preschooler Build a Better Brain: Early Learning Activities for 2-6 Year Old Children. But whether or not you want the paperback version, too, I can’t see a reason why a person with a young child or grandchild wouldn’t want to own the newly revised e-book!
Disclosure: I was given a copy of John Bowman’s book but was not required to write a positive review. My opinions are my own.
Montessori Print Shop Materials Bundle

I am a new Montessori teacher with 3 children of my own would love to have these materials.
I am a new teacher and always looking for new materials and ways to explain Montessori to parents. This sounds like the perfect combo.
Thanks.
This would be perfect for my little learner! Any new ideas I can introduce to her only helps. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love to win this! I am new to Montessori and homeschooling and could use all the help I can get!
Love these ideas!
wow, with 3 part time jobs and 3.5/2.5 Mr’s keen to do hands on things around at home I have found homeschooling the easiest and most likeable activities for them. This pack would definately help me in my midnight endeavours to find them activities to do for the next day.
Thanks
I’m struggling to find our homeschooling path, and this would be an excellent resource for me to use with my almost 4 and almost 2.5 year olds.
I didn’t even know you could learn Montessori without a school – great idea!
My son is in a Montessori kindergarten and thriving. Montessori is new for us though and I’d love as many items at home as possible to help him learn like he’s learning at school!
Yay!! My 4th grader is starting out in a Montessori school and it’s AMAZING to finally have a school that “clicks” with him. So naturally, with a 5yo homeschooled kindergartener and a 4yo at home, I’m looking to incorporate some Montessori methods in our home play!
This looks like a fantastic giveaway! My son went to a preschool that used Montessori-like methods. Not that we’re homeschooling, I would love to incorporate more of those types of things in our school day – especially since I also have a 2.5-year-old.
Thanks for the great opportunity!
I would love to win this giveaway because I could use all the hope I can get with helping train up my daughter. 🙂
Thanks for the chance.

I would really love to have this e book. It will surely help me to give proper early learning for children.
I’m looking to supplement my son’s tradtional preschool experince. So love the Montessori way!
I would love to win because I’m always looking for more information on the Montessori Method! There is always so much to learn, so many activities, and sometimes I feel I don’t know where to start with it all!
I hope hope hope! Thanks for the opportunity
I love using Montessori materials and the kids love “playing”!
This would be great for my 2 youngest kids. I’ve been interested in the Montessori method for a while but have been too overwhelmed. This would be a great start. Thanks!
I have a 2 year old who is so ready for Montessori – I’d love to win this!
Montessori lessons inspire a new way of introducing new ideals for special needs children and this give away would be a welcomed arsenal to our homeschool program. This is an awsome give away 🙂
