Shapes are all around us, and when we look through our 2-D imaginary glasses… Your dining table is probably a square, rectangle, ellipse, or circle. Your bookshelf is probably a series of rectangles that makes a larger rectangle. Your windows could be rectangles made up of a bunch of squares. Your rug might be an ellipse. We could keep going on and on! By introducing the shapes in a geometric cabinet (one of our 21 Montessori Essentials!), your child could not only learn their shapes…they grow their brains!
