Start where you are

Which sounds most like you?

I'm not sure what I need

Don't browse hundreds of listings. Choose the subject below and I'll help you narrow the options based on what your child or students need now.

I already know roughly what I want

Go straight to the resources other teachers and homeschoolers choose most often, or browse by age.

I want a larger library

If you regularly need follow-up work across several topics or children, a bundle may be better value than buying resources one at a time.

Reduce the overwhelm

Tell me what you're teaching.

These guides help you choose based on the learner's need, rather than expecting you to compare dozens of products yourself.

Cosmic Education

Great Stories, Earth history, science, geography & humans

Presented a Great Lesson and now wondering “What do I give them next?”

Use the Cosmic guide to choose between Great Lesson support, follow-up activities, geological time, Earth science, Fundamental Needs and larger Cosmic libraries.

Montessori Maths

Number, place value, operations, fractions & more

Not sure what should come next, or whether you need one activity, a focused bundle or a broad elementary library?

The maths guide helps you choose by stage and need, from early foundations through fractions and larger elementary maths libraries.

Literacy & Reading

Phonics, decoding, grammar, spelling & writing

If reading the words is the problem, start with the early-reading pathway.

If the child can read but needs richer language work, the guide will take you towards grammar, vocabulary and writing resources instead.

Bigger Solution

I need a resource library, not one more printable

Bundles are flexible libraries, not week-by-week curricula. Choose what is useful when it is useful.

Compare options for complete libraries, independent work, Cosmic Education, maths, reading and other learning needs.

Prefer to browse by age?

Go straight to the stage you're teaching.

Ages 3–6

Early Montessori maths, language, practical learning and foundational work.

Ages 6–12

Elementary maths, literacy, Cosmic Education, science, history, geography and independent follow-up.

Ages 9–12

Deeper research, advanced maths, cultural study, language and increasingly independent work.

Buying directly from MontessoriKiwi

Resources from the educator who created them.

When you buy here, you're buying directly from an independent Montessori educator and resource creator rather than searching through a marketplace.

Clearer choices

Direct support

Questions about a MontessoriKiwi resource come directly back to MontessoriKiwi.

Larger libraries

Bundles bring related resources together when buying individual activities no longer makes sense.

Who is behind the resources?

Hi, I'm Lisa.

I'm a Montessori-trained and New Zealand registered teacher, former homeschooler and founder of a Montessori primary school, with more than 20 years of teaching experience.

I've also spent more than 11 years creating educational resources. I know what it is like to teach mixed ages, work with children at very different levels and need useful follow-up without spending every evening preparing materials.

My aim is to create resources that help children think, practise, investigate and work more independently — while making the adult's job more manageable.

New to MontessoriKiwi?

Try something useful before deciding what to buy.

My free-resource page includes selected materials for Cosmic Education, maths, literacy, science and geography.

Use a free resource to see how the materials are structured, then follow the matching subject guide if you need more.

Keep it simple

Start with the problem you're trying to solve.

You don't need hundreds of resources. Find the one that fits the child, lesson or stage you're working on now.

In New Zealand?

Looking for personalised homeschool support?

I also offer New Zealand homeschool resources and support, separate from the main Montessori printable library.
