Organised by age range from birth to 21 months, these toys grow with your baby supporting each stage of development in a gentle and intuitive way. Crafted from durable materials with beautiful, tactile finishes, they offer an enriching experience that is both educational and sensory. Discover toys that stimulate the senses, foster early learning, and respect your child’s natural rhythm guided by the timeless principles of Montessori education.

Tailored to Every Stage: What’s Inside Each Montessori Set?

To support your little one’s natural curiosity, each set is carefully designed according to your baby’s age and developmental stage. From birth to 21 months, the toys evolve in sync with your child’s sensory, motor, and cognitive needs.

  • 0–3 months: Early Sensory Discovery Wooden baby mobile, black-and-white contrast cards, soft ball, sensory cube, and silicone rattle — these gentle, sensory-rich toys are designed to stimulate visual perception, support hand-eye coordination, and encourage grasping from the very beginning.
  • 4–6 months: Exploration Through Touch and Movement Cylinder rattle, sensory silicone balls, wooden spinning drum, and crinkle cloth — your baby develops muscle strength, explores new textures and sounds, and begins to control their movements with more precision.
  • 7–9 months: Coordination and Object Permanence Object permanence box, plush grasp ball, stacking cups, and round wooden rattle — these Montessori-inspired toys spark curiosity, refine fine motor skills, and introduce early problem-solving concepts like object permanence.
  • 10–12 months: Fine Motor Skills and Early Independence Wooden stacking tower, spiral ball run, and Montessori tissue box — perfect for practising stacking, pulling, and cause-and-effect play, these toys help strengthen coordination and support growing autonomy.
  • 13–15 months: Sorting, Matching, and Counting Colour sorting cups, colour filters, hide & seek box, and stacking blocks — ideal for encouraging logic, pattern recognition, and early counting in a playful, hands-on way.
  • 16–18 months: Self-Expression and Open-Ended Play Xylophone, stacking tube with balls, and bath toys — whether through music, movement, or water play, these toys promote creativity, autonomy, and joyful experimentation.
  • 19–21 months: Structuring Thought and Problem Solving Wooden puzzle, counting boards, sorting and lacing toy — more complex activities that introduce your child to early numeracy, categorisation, and independent problem-solving in a fun and meaningful way.

Why Choose Montessori-Inspired Toys?

Montessori-inspired toys are thoughtfully designed to support your child’s natural development, respecting their unique pace and needs at every stage. At Petite Amélie, we offer simple, sensory-rich toys that promote fine motor skills, concentration, and sensory engagement without overwhelming your little one. Unlike overly stimulating toys, these open-ended activities encourage independent exploration and meaningful interaction. Tailored for babies from birth to 21 months, our Montessori sets offer genuine educational value — gently and reassuringly guiding your child’s early learning journey.

Safe, Durable, and Baby-Friendly Materials

Every toy in our collection is crafted from materials that are safe, durable, and perfectly suited to little ones — natural wood, LFGB-certified silicone, and soft, gentle textiles. Free from sharp edges or small parts, our toys are suitable from birth and thoughtfully designed to ensure peace of mind for parents. These high-quality materials not only offer a rich sensory experience essential for healthy development but also ensure long-lasting durability, making them ideal for growing families and future play.

Montessori Toys Designed to Foster Independence

Inspired by the Montessori philosophy, our toys are made to encourage self-directed play, helping your child understand the purpose of each activity and progress at their own pace. Whether stacking, rolling, pulling, or threading, every action repeated with joy builds confidence, independence, and motor skills. These toys support active learning, where your little one becomes the true explorer of their world — gently guided by curiosity and discovery.
