I was wondering, since my son thinks anything Montessori that his little sister does is wonderful, how you go about 'doing' Montessori with the older child?
I have yet to read the Hainstock book, but I know it is out there. Are there any other recommendations?

Rachel, I would go look at the online albums at MTC here
Reading through the 6-9 presentations should give you a good idea of what the older kid stuff is like.

Great... printing them and reading them... especially since I can't find the Hainstock book out there!
