Catholic Montessori Album/Manual

 I've been very blessed to be able to use Elizabeth Papandrea's Catholic Montessori album in my home and with our co-op children last year. It is amazing what little one's are capable of comprehending and a joy to be able to share the faith with them. I always look forward to hearing the children's reflections on the presentations. It is so sweet to hear the words and thoughts that come straight from their heart. Pure, sweet, and often profound. Some of the presentations from Elizabeth's manual have become tradition in our home. The children love the preparation time of Advent when we gather round the Advent wreath and read the prophecies of the coming Messiah. As they've gotten older, the meaning and understanding of the presentations deepens within them, and they are delighted whenever they hear some of the recognized scripture at Mass.
 My family attends the Latin Mass also known as the Extraordinary Form, and I was absolutely excited that Elizabeth has included notes for both Ordinary and Extraordinary forms!

In an effort to streamline the process, I will be helping Elizabeth process the orders for her Catholic Montessori manual. Any inquiries for the manual can be sent to me at montessoricandy@gmail.com

You can also now purchase the albums with the click of a button through Paypal! Once payment is received, you will receive the pdf album via email within 24 hours!
