Did you know that 85% of your child's brain is formed by age three? Yep, there's a lot of exciting stuff happening in that cute little noggin. Guide your baby or toddler’s development with Monti Kids. This subscription service provides the tools—and the toys—to kickstart early learning with the Montessori method (a 100+-year old education system based on hands-on, sensory activities that are child-directed). Every three months, Monti Kids sends a box of age-appropriate Montessori toys and materials to your door. Grownups will get emails featuring short videos and guides, helping you introduce and use the toys to expand your child's skills. Designed by internationally-certified Montessori educators, toys meet or exceed US-safety standards. Better yet, the beautiful, high-quality materials are manufactured with sustainably-forested wood, non-toxic paint, and 100% recyclable packaging. Keep in mind: this subscription is on the pricy side at $297/box (which nets out to around $100/month). But you'll get so much more than the typical box of toys. Parents have access to a private community moderated by Montessori experts who offer personalized support all along the journey. Founded by a mom/Harvard educated Montessori teacher/Shark Tank rockstar, Monti Kids is a great way to navigate these oh-so-important early years and create a wonderful learning environment at home. So, if you’ve ever wondered when to start with a Montessori curriculum… the answer may be now!
