Shelves: These can be used for many different things. Standing, open shelves can be used to store toys, tools, Montessori learning materials, books, etc. This will help children physical see where these things belong.
Trays: These can be used to help keep things organized. Kids can learn what goes in each tray and can help keep up with them. This is a great tool to use for things such as artwork. All artwork goes into tray and you can only keep what fits in the tray.
Baskets: Use baskets for bigger objects such as large toys, building blocks, trains, learning materials. You can use baskets to add trays into for sorting as well.
Lowered Hooks: These are very important for the Montessori classroom and homes as well. They can help organize many things. They can help with clothes and backpacks, but for many other things as well. The children can hang materials and utensil themselves because they are lowered.
Small Cups & Containers: These can help organize smaller items such as puzzles, Lego pieces, pens, crayons, etc. You can use these along with the trays and baskets to organize within them. They can be used for many different things so they will come in handy often.
