Montessori-Inspired Life Cycle Activities Using Free Printables

By Deb Chitwood from Living Montessori Now

I love life cycle activities ... and we have lots of them in our new unit! Our new unit has Montessori-inspired activities using free life cycle printables along with a new Montessori-inspired life cycle 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.
