A few days ago, I found the Montessori factory store in St. Petersburg - it was like walking in a dreamland! Other than visiting vendors at various national Montessori conferences, I have never experienced a 'commercial' Montessori store - it was like being in the proverbial candy shop!
 |
| Imagine walking down the street and seeing this in a window! Geometric Solids, the Pink Tower (at least part of it…), Knobless Cylinders, Sandpaper Letters… |
 |
| Shelves full of glorious materials. |
 |
| I couldn't resist purchasing some aprons and this small wash board - I have visions of a new polish cloth/laundry lesson... |
 |
| These Montessori-themed magnets will make lovely souvenirs. |
 |
| These divided trays and metal inset papers box will make nice additions to my classroom. |
 |
| This mesmerizing 'singing cup' will be a welcome addition in our music area. |
 |
| I am so glad to have found the store - and it turns out that it is walking distance from our apartment in St. Petersburg. I have a feeling it won't be the last visit, and wouldn't it be spectacular to visit the actual factory?! |
