Thank you for photo permissions!

Thank you to the wonderful bloggers who have given me permission to use your photos in my posts (with credit to you, a link to your post, and a comment letting you know I’m using your photo, of course)! If you haven’t seen my request for permissions, here’s a link to my post: Request for Montessori Photo Permissions.

If I may have permission to use photos from your blog, please let me know! Although I use Montessori photos most often, I also link to posts with crafts or unit-study activities. If you have posts with similar activities, I’d really appreciate photo permissions for them. I love that the photos add to the post content and also bring attention to your link.

Thank you to my sponsors!

Thank you to Karen Tyler at World Wide Montessori Online who sponsored the amazing giveaway in July of a place in her Montessori Training Course and 12 Montessori Albums! Also, thank you to everyone who entered the giveaway! Even if you didn’t win, Karen’s training courses are wonderful and one of the best bargains in the world. Contact her for information about her course starting September 1.

Thank you to my sponsor, Montessori Print Shop, who has free printables (including a new free Montessori material released each month), beautiful yet inexpensive printables, a wonderful blog, and lots of great information and resources (see all the drop-down menus at the top of the page)!
