It's been most inspiring. However, I was wondering if you could add a bit more about making the 1000 cube itself. I just cannot picture how it is put together. <br /><br />BTW, I got all the beads from the place you recommended and I loved them. The only change I made was using 16 gauge copper wire instead. I really liked how firm the bars looked.<br /><br />Thanks again, you're awesome!!Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02801496647311595468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31724953.post-26640625250800528082011-02-23T11:21:52.554-08:002011-02-23T11:21:52.554-08:00You did a wonderful job!

Your kids are adorable.<br /><br />I'm getting ready to place my order for the beads with Bolek, and have a few quick questions:<br /><br />1) since you used opaque beads, which colors did you choose for the pink (different shade) and the light and dark greys?<br /><br />2) where can I find exactly how to make the snake game and other beads that aren't obvious from looking on Montessori web sites?<br /><br />3) How do you store the beads? I do love those little wooden boxes you get with Montessori things (guess that's why they cost the big bucks) and wonder if there's something inexpensive to use.<br /><br />4) which books do you recommend re: learning how to do the math? My daughter is just turning 5, and we've pretty much done the David Gettman book (I love this book!). I read recently about these books, Montessori Matters from the Sisters of Notre Dame De Namur. Not sure if there are other options.<br />http://www.nienhuis.com/index.php?target=products&mode=search&subcats=Y&type=extended&avail=Y&pshort=Y&pfull=Y&pname=Y&pkeywords=Y&tc_pcode=Y&match=all&cid=0&q=montessori+matters<br />Any suggestions?<br /><br />Thanks so much for your wonderful site.
