As a teacher mom, I was drawn to the Montessori method of parenting – especially with the focus on independence, creativity, and curiosity. So I spent a lot of my pregnancy reading Montessori books to learn how to implement it into my parenting. With that, I found that the toys we had in the toy box were also important! But they can get expensive really quickly! So luckily Prime Day has several Montessori essential toys on sale to ease the impact on your wallet!
Prime Day Deals for Montessori Parents (0-12 Months)
This set was gifted to us around my daughter’s first birthday and she was immediately drawn to all the colors and building. Even now, at 2 and a half, she loves making flowers! There are some smaller pieces, so make sure to supervise, but I always just gave her the bigger flower pieces until she grew out of putting things in her mouth!
I will warn you – this is loud, but oh so fun for kids! My daughter loves playing with any and all instruments, plus it builds that music love as well. Now she sings songs, dances, and “plays” all the instruments! Having musical instruments and allowing kids to explore the sounds is such a key to Montessori education, that having this set on Prime Day deal is amazing!
If you are wanting to move away from the high chair, this is a great set to replace it with!
Object Permanence Box and Puzzle Set
The object permanence box is a Montessori staple and I love that there’s this Prime Day deal bundle available with a small puzzle as well!
Stacking rocks are a classic building toy that I’ve found keeps my daughter entertained for a good 30 minutes (which in toddler land is SO long!).
We love wooden puzzles! We love our wooden puzzles – and when it seems like they are getting too easy, we will mix up the pieces of 2 puzzles (or all of them) for an added challenge.
As you’re looking at adding to your child’s options for toys, don’t forget to also think about how to organize them! In my Prime Day deals for Home Organization post, I share about a furniture brand – VASAGLE – that I love to use for storing my daughter’s toys (and A LOT of their furniture is on Prime Day deal!) – go go go!
Prime Day Deals for Montessori Parents (1-3 Years)
To help encourage help in the kitchen, we have this exact knife set! With having her own set of knives, our daughter has been helping in the kitchen more and more – we often call her the Sous Chef!
Balance boards are a great indoor activity to get some energy out! I love that this is a Prime Day deal because they can be pretty spendy!
My daughter LOVES her cleaning set! It’s a great way to make sure she’s involved in cleaning the house and is one of my go-to ways to reduce her screen time!
I’m not saying that you have to sit your child down and tell them to trace the letters – but having this available, you’ll find that they will start to do it on their own. Remember, Montessori is about choice and independence. If you give them the opportunity, they will eventually start to learn and do it themselves!
Of course we have building magnetic tiles on the list. All the building activities are great for Montessori parents – and this is a great Prime Day deal!
Melissa & Doug Toys
I’ve always enjoyed Melissa & Doug toys, as they are high quality and replicate real things in life. There are TONS of Melissa & Doug toys on Prime Day deal – below I show just a few!
We have this exact shape sorter puzzle, which also allows for color sorting as well!
I mention this exact activity in my screen time alternative post, so I love that it is on Prime Day deal for parents that need a little structured scavenger hunt!
