Before preschool, there's Monti Kids.
85% of the brain is formed by age three yet parents are left guessing how to create a stimulating environment during these formative years. Even for parents who go through the difficult process of researching their child's developmental needs, existing solutions are limited.
Only 4% of all toys in the US are marked safe for children under three, and those are mostly plastic and plush, not educational.
Monti Kids empowers parents with educational wooden toys and simple online guidance based on the world's leading early childhood curriculum: the Montessori method. The program is a subscription beginning at birth, with customers advancing to a new stage every three months.
When children outgrow Monti Kids, families have the option to enter our donation program for underserved children.
