Description
In the Montessori environment we use all types of baskets, and trays to transport materials safely, and easily from the shelves to the work tables, or mats. This plastic basket with a knit design is extremely versatile, sturdy and reasonably priced.
Another aspect of Montessori trays, and baskets is that they allow the teacher to curate the shelves; as required; for the prepared environment. This takes into account the Child’s interest, and skill level. Using flat trays; or smaller baskets; separates activities, enabling the Child to focus on the task at hand, producing more purposeful play.
The contents in the basket are not supplied with the basket, and are for illustrative purposes.
