Montessori Environment
The Montessori environment is a spacious, open, tidy, pleasing in appearance, simple and real place, where each element exists for a reason in order to help in the development of the child. All items in the classrooms are scaled to the child’s size, including furniture, shelves, utensils, dishware, cleaning implements and the Montessori materials themselves. The classroom is divided into theme areas where related materials and bibliography are exposed on the shelves, allowing great freedom of movement. The classroom curriculum for children from 3 to 6 years old is divided into five working areas: Practical Life, Sensorial, Mathematics, Language and Cultural (including Music, Arts, Geography and Science).

Nienhuis Montessori Products
The Montessori classroom is a "living room" for children, a place in which they should feel at home and secure. Children choose their activities from among the self-correcting materials displayed on open shelves that allow the children to learn through all five senses. Precise materials are at the heart of a Montessori education. Nienhuis continue the legacy of Maria Montessori with concrete materials, based on the original blueprints and the principals of the methodology. For over 80 years, Nienhuis products have been produced using distinctive and traditional methods, investing a great deal of love into shape, color and character.
