What is Casa dei Bambini

Casa dei Bambini was the name Maria Montessori gave the Children Houses where children were educated, cared for, and treated as whole persons...body, mind, and soul.

I have chosen it as the my main blog heading for several reasons:
1) my home is a Children's House
2) admiration of Maria Montessori's educational teachings
3) Casa dei Bambini was Catholic-influenced and I am a Catholic
4) we home educate and use the Montessori Method as much as possible in our educational process

This blog will also show weavings of English educator Charlotte Mason-style learning and, religion wise, how we use the Catechisis of the Good Shepherd in our home.

My personal blog is where I blog things in general, going-ons at the on-line literature site, book news, and other news; brags about my children, lessons we learn, and what it means to us all.
