A reindeer theme is so much fun in December ... whether or not you want to focus on Santa's reindeer. Our new unit has Montessori-inspired activities using free reindeer printables along with a new Montessori-inspired reindeer pack for subscribers to our free newsletter at Living Montessori Now!
You'll find many activities for preschoolers through early elementary throughout the year in my previous PreK + K Sharing posts. You'll also find ideas for using free printables to create activity trays here: How to Use Printables to Create Montessori-Inspired Activities.
At Living Montessori Now, I have a page with lots and lots of free printables.
