Without overlapping, the bookshelf accommodates approximately 10 to 12 books. The shelves are deep, meaning you can stack several books to fit more. Plus, there’s storage space in the back where you can store more books.
Montessori bookshelves feature a simple, beautiful design and promote independence. For young children, front-facing bookshelves are ideal, as children can look at the covers of the books and pick out the books they’d like to read.
Rotating the books on your Montessori bookshelf every few weeks makes your reading corner engaging for your little one. Try adding sets of books about the season, holidays, dinosaurs, butterflies, or another topic of interest!
