Description

This Stool – 6 to 9 years of age is ideal for The Child.  Maria Montessori was clear that children need to be able to move and act independently in their environment. Their development occurs because of their movement and interaction with the things around them.

These stools fulfill this requirement by ensuring that it is constructed in proportion to The Child’s needs and size.  As Maria said, “Children develop their brains as well as their bodies through movement”, these stools are sturdy, strong enough to be stood upon to reach something that is out of their reach, but light enough to be lifted by The Child and moved around the classroom easily, providing them with great independence.

In addition, The Child’s core muscles need to be developed, strengthened and constantly worked (in a natural manner).  This is achieved by providing the child with a solid, stable chair without armrests – this prevents the child from developing the habit of “slouching” while sitting.
