Our Montessori Baby

We are starting to do lots of reading on the Montessori way. Izzy is attending a "true" Montessori school in Downtown Sacramento (long story why we changed schools). Anyways we have been waiting for 9 months to get into this school and we finally got in. It is a beautiful school with a new building and an old Victorian for the over 3 year olds. They have a garden that they grow all the food, they compost, and have a river, all in the city! They have a chef that prepares food daily and in the 17 month old class they have a swinging bar that the kids can hang from and cute little mini bathrooms in the center of the class. We are beginning to start changing our home to support her learning at school. We have all her toys in boxes sorted by type: musical, books, sensorial, motor, etc. We tried to get her a little table and chairs from IKEA but they were out of the one we want so we will be back after the first of the year. We are practicing with her regarding self-control.
