THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. SEE BOTTOM OF POST FOR ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE WINNER!
I’m so excited to announce another fabulous giveaway sponsored by Karen Tyler at World Wide Montessori Online! I don’t do a lot of giveaways … but Karen Tyler sponsors AMAZING giveaways! I was fortunate to host one of Karen’s course giveaways before, and I’m VERY HAPPY to be able to give another lucky person the chance to win Karen’s Montessori training course and 12 Montessori teacher training albums!
I wrote before about Karen Tyler’s Montessori Training Course and gave you ways to get her wonderful geography album and 3-part botany and zoology cards for free. In Karen’s training course, not only do you receive 12 albums with over 5,000 pages of activities and presentations, but you also receive lectures and can correspond with Karen, a certified AMS teacher, throughout your course. You may schedule Skype consultations with Karen as well. And even though it’s a course that gives you huge amounts of helpful information, there’s no pressure … there aren’t tests or assignments, and you can take the course totally at your own pace.
Karen will be starting a new Montessori Training Course on September 1. I highly recommend her training! Read about it in my earlier post. Karen also has all the details at World Wide Montessori Online.
Now for the Giveaway:
What You Will Win: Karen Tyler’s Complete Montessori Training Course that starts September 1 AND the 12 Montessori teacher training albums/manuals that are full of curriculum!!! (Depending on your payment plan, this would normally cost $150-240 … and it’s worth much, much more than that!)

I’d love to win these so I can get started on this incredoble journey with my incredible 2 yr old!
I would like to learn more about preparing the home environment, especially in the kitchen. Also what kind of mattress to use for toddlers after outgrowing the crib sized mattress.

One last chance to try to win these albums! I have the trays, the shelves and quite a number of materials! Now all I need is the knowledge to present the items to my child. These albums would be the perfect resource for me to gather that knowledge from.
Today I’d like to learn the basic principles for getting started in Montessori.

I would like to win this because I will be homeschooling my children and I cannot find any schooling method superior to Montessori! But the Montessori method doesn’t typically publish curriculum, so these albums are exactly what I need!
I am a homeschooling mom who is new to Montessori… feeling a little overwhelmed at the lost time with my oldest 2 but hoping to start with my littlest 2. This training and material would be so helpful. Thanks for the giveaway!
Today I would like to know more about language arts for toddler aged children.
Today I would like to know more about geometry materials.
Again, I want to say what an amazing asset this would be for my family! Not only do I love the method of teaching, I see how my children thrive when I use it. It taps into something truly unique and beautiful in each of them, whether we’re learning how to wash hands, construct pink towers, or plant a flower.
Having this album set would help streamline my homeschooling planning so that I could spend quality time with my little ones, and not stress about costs of “this” or making sure to factor “that” into our schedule. We’re short on funds, so being gifted this would be incredible!
i am all set to take karen’s course in september and i am spending my summer break making my own montessori materials.
I’m spending the summer taking 6-9 so that I will be completely certified in 6-12….having the albums for the younger age group will just further my Montessori World!
