Maria Montessori (1870-1952) was an Italian pedagogue, physician and philosopher, known for developing the educational method that bears her name, the Montessori Method. She devoted herself to the study of childhood and developed an educational approach based on scientific observation of children and respect for their natural development. The Montessori method focuses on self-education, learning through exploration and the use of specially designed educational materials to stimulate children's cognitive, sensory and motor development.Montessori maintained that children learn best when they are free to explore and discover in a prepared environment where they can develop their independence and self-discipline. The educational materials she designed are often characterized by a simple design and structure that allows children to use them independently.Montessori Toys take inspiration directly from the principles and materials developed by Maria Montessori. These toys are designed to stimulate children's natural development, foster self-education and encourage independent exploration. They often feature simple shapes, neutral colors and natural materials to promote a calm and focused educational environment. The goal is to provide children with learning experiences that reflect the basic principles of the Montessori method.
