Flowers in Montessori

We love flowers at Baan Dek. They freshen up the place, especially in the winter. Did you know that flowers are a mainstay in Montessori classrooms? Yes!

This beautiful arrangement was gifted by Darlene George. She just turned sixty! Shh….we mean, fifty! Happy Birthday Grandma George!
