Important Notice Regarding Montessori Candy

Aghhh! I am having some problems with Google, so my blog domain will temporarily be set up at http://www.montessoricandy.blogspot.com until further notice. Google has many great new products and services coming out one after another, but to me personally, it is all getting a bit confusing! I purchased my domain name through Google, and had no idea they created a separate email account and something called Google apps. Ay caramba! Now I have to try and get a hold of someone at Google to try and help me sort out what happened to montessoricandy.com  Sooo... for now, please use http://www.montessoricandy.blogspot.com

Thank you for your patience, and please pass the word along if you have a blog, facebook, twitter account, etc...

Children's House Montessori School observes International Day of Peace

What do you do in your home or school to teach or promote peace education? I'll share some of what we do on Monday. Have a great weekend!

A Montessori Moment

Here's a cute pic of the kids just hanging out. I love it when they work together. Even the older children who've already mastered the colored tablets, were enjoying spending time with the little one's. The older children taking joy and practicing patience in teaching the younger one's, and the younger children excited to be working with the materials alongside the old kids. I think it's sweet, and I feel blessed to be able to be a part of it, even if just as an observer.
