How content is created

Every activity, material and extension is a structured record written from Montessori classroom and home experience. Records carry a named reviewer, a review date and their sources. Nothing is published automatically, and no page is generated and released without human review.

How we cite sources

Sources on a record name the work they come from — most often Maria Montessori's own books, such as The Discovery of the Child, The Absorbent Mind and The Montessori Method — and the chapter or named section where the idea sits. We do not cite page numbers, because editions differ and a page number you cannot check is worse than none. We do not cite studies we have not read, and we do not cite blogs or product pages as evidence. If a record cannot be sourced to a work we can name, it stays unpublished and never appears in a plan.

What we will not claim

• We do not diagnose, assess or score child development.
• We do not promise educational outcomes or school readiness.
• We do not tell you your child is behind.
• We do not imply expensive materials are required.

Commercial rules

When we recommend anything to buy, we first show what you can use from your home and what you can make. Purchase recommendations must be justified by the activity, and they never take priority over a household alternative. Any affiliate relationship will be disclosed on the page where it appears.

Corrections

If something here is wrong or unsafe, tell us and we will correct the record and update its review date.
