 All active MKAP members have access to the *current month's plan. Feel free to download all the printable(s) to your computer and use them whenever you like.

How long are Monthly Kids Activities Plans available in the members’ portal?

Each Monthly Kids Activities Plan (MKAP™) is available in the members’ portal for four (4) weeks. During this time, we recommend downloading the PlayPrint Pack, which contains all printable materials, to your computer for personal use.

A new MKAP™ plan is released on the 1st of each month and replaces the previous month’s plan in the Members’ Hub. Once a plan is replaced, it is no longer accessible through the active membership portal.

Past MKAP™ plans are not included in an active membership or One-Time Payment Lifetime Access purchase, but may be purchased separately, subject to availability. View available past MKAP™ plans.

For the annual plan, members are billed USD $129 automatically every year. You can cancel anytime, and your membership will end at the end of your current paid yearly billing cycle. Annual plan members enjoy a $50 savings, resulting in a lower monthly cost (USD $10.75 per month -> $0.35 c/day), and get access to the MKAP for a year. Your credit card will be charged monthly or annually, depending on the plan you choose, until you cancel.

You can also choose a One-Time Payment Lifetime Access option, which gives you access to the MKAP™ core program for the lifetime of the course.

To qualify, refund requests must be submitted within 30 days of purchase and include proof that the monthly plan was completed (such as photos or notes documenting completed activities). Except as stated above, refunds are not provided for sign-up fees, memberships, subscriptions, courses, or other digital products.

Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method, less any non-refundable processing or transaction fees.

This platform is built on a simple truth: information does not equal transformation.

You can find activities, ideas, and lesson plans anywhere. What most parents are missing isn’t information—it’s support, consistency, and connection.

What makes this platform different is the community-centered experience. Here, you’re learning alongside other parents who are navigating the same stages, asking the same questions, and showing up together. That shared experience creates clarity, confidence, and momentum that isolated learning simply can’t provide.

Instead of feeling overwhelmed or second-guessing yourself, you’re supported by:

This is a place where learning happens with others, because real growth doesn’t happen alone.

The activities in MKAP are tailored for children aged 18 months to 6 years, with many activities adaptable for a wide age range. While most activities are suitable for both age groups, I provide instructions on how to adjust activities accordingly. So, if an activity is labeled [18 M+], your preschooler might find it engaging too! It's important to remember that age recommendations are simply guidelines, as children develop at their own pace. Instead, choose activities that align with your child's interest, abilities and skill level. For example, if your toddler shows interest in numbers and can recognize them, feel free to introduce activities designed for older children.

Yes, absolutely! If you decide to switch from the monthly plan to the yearly plan to take advantage of our annual billing discount, or to a Lifetime Plan, just reach out to me via "Ask Instructor" or email me at anya@montessorifromtheheart.com. I'll be happy to assist you.

Themed unit studies, often referred to as 'thematic' studies, have the power to significantly enrich your homeschooling curriculum. Be it a Dinosaur theme, Bugs, Landmarks, Clouds and Water Cycle, or a Holiday theme, they immerse children in specific areas of study, transforming learning into a new and exciting adventure. Through a hands-on approach, thematic unit studies allow our children to explore subjects in-depth, fostering experiential and discovery-based learning. These themes breathe new life into activities by adding a fresh perspective, crafting dynamic shelf setups, turning books into immersive experiences, engaging in sensory exploration, and infusing language and math activities with creative twists. It's a holistic educational journey that brings subjects to life from various perspectives and dimensions, infusing a vibrant outlook into what might otherwise seem mundane.

So, the beauty of thematic unit studies is that we can create a prepared environment for the child to embrace hands-on learning in a new and exciting way. Studies have shown that information presented in a novel way that ignites emotions is 50% more likely to be retained. And the best part is that unit studies can be simplified for younger children or expanded for older ones. So, you have ample flexibility within a themed study to spark questions and discussions or delve deeper into a topic of interest, should they desire so. 

Not a lot is needed. To implement Montessori lessons, you would typically purchase some basic materials. However, with MKAP, the required materials are very minimal. I suggest essential Montessori materials based on your budget, which you can find in the suggested Material List under the BASICs course.

I also aim to offer DIY alternatives, when feasible, should you decide to make them yourself.

Additionally, I design and offer printable materials to promote active, hands-on learning.

No. One low, long shelf is sufficient. You can also repurpose existing shelves in your home, such as TV stands, which are generally low to the ground and at child-view level. The aim is to have open cubbies that are easily accessible to the child, fostering independence and organization.

Absolutely! Our courses are designed with flexibility in mind, making them suitable for families with children of various ages. Whether you have toddlers, preschoolers, kindergartners, or a mix of age groups, our unit study-style learning can be adapted to cater to their unique needs.

And although the courses are specifically crafted to cater to the unique needs of children within the 2-6 year age range, they offer engaging activities suitable for children as young as 18 months, providing a gentle introduction to the themes. For those aged 6-7 who are ready for more advanced exploration, our courses also offer extension activities that can challenge and enrich their learning experience.

The beauty of our courses lies in their adaptability. You can adjust the pace and depth of the activities to suit each child's developmental stage, ensuring that everyone in your household can benefit from the same themes while experiencing age-appropriate challenges and enrichment. It's a wonderful way to foster a shared learning experience that accommodates the diverse ages of your children.

Also, it is important to notice your child's 'sensitive period' when they become deeply engrossed in one particular activity. During these phases, they may repeat the same activity incessantly because it fascinates them. It's crucial during these moments not to disrupt their concentration but to encourage and support their interests. For instance, my son, Adrian, was captivated by construction vehicles at the age of 2, and his pretend play would extend for hours. The primary message here is to let children play and learn organically, focusing on hands-on learning experiences. Avoid pushing them into formal learning at these tender ages; instead, let them thrive through the joy of play-based learning.
