“I would not purchase this again. In fact, after looking through it once, I have placed it in my donate pile. I would try to sell it but I do not think it would be of any use to anyone. For me, this book consists of 32 pages of things you would naturally think to do with children at some point. For example, some of the exercises given are: Watering the Garden Washing Windows Sweeping Flower Cutting/Arranging I don't think there was one "new" idea in this book for me. I suppose if any of the above items appeal to you as something you'd like to work on with your children and hadn't thought of on your own, then this is a book you would enjoy. However, for me, it was nothing new.”

Dear Montessori Dreamer, I'm very sorry that you did not find this book useful. Sadly, many teachers do not venture outside and the ideas in this book are new to them. It sounds like you have had much experience with a prepared outdoor environment. We are delighted that you are already doing these things but sad that you were disappointed in your purchase. Please know that your satisfaction is always guaranteed. You may return any item, for any reason, for a full refund or exchange. You indicate that this book will go in your "donate" pile. You might consider sending it back and receiving a refund or exchanging this book for something else (shipping on exchange orders is on us). Meanwhile, we will reevaluate the description of this item in our catalog and online and see if we can convey the content more clearly so other teachers do not have your same experience. Thank you very much for your feedback. Kristine (Krissy) Beoka Merchandising Manger
