The Best Montessori Blogs 2016!
Welcome to my list of Best Montessori Blogs of 2016!
I really want to share some fabulous blogs from this year. I'm using the term 'best' loosely as I am sure there are many other wonderful blogs that I don't know about. Also, I have many good friends listed here - so I am biased. I hope you find some beautiful and inspiring Montessori blogs in this list! I've only included active blogs, some of them are more lifestyle blogs, but these are the ones I read and really connect with! I feel the Montessori lifestyle blogs really show the essence of Montessori in the home - which I love!!
