It is never too early to build a love of literature. Maria Montessori said once that children who have developed a love of books “can go on to any limit guided by the single passion for reading.” She tells us that “the only language men ever speak perfectly is the one they learn in babyhood when no one can teach them anything!”

So to make reading a more consistent aspect of your home life and raise a child who is keen on reading we have designed this small Montessori-inspired low bookshelf that sits on the ground. As with any Montessori space, a reading area needs to be accessible to the child.

While traditional bookcases may work well for adults, they rarely work for children who need to see the front of the book to remember the title they are searching for.  This front-facing angled low bookshelf Displays your books with covers out to encourage reading and literacy in children. Younger children can easily choose what books they want to read, and as they grow it will be simpler for them to choose what they want to read.

We believe that creating a child-friendly, independent reading space doesn't have to be hard at all and this Wood Toddler Bookcase will help you to organize children's space conveniently and compactly.

A dedicated reading area in your home, classroom, or toddler community is a great way to support young readers. It can also provide a moment of respite from the busy home or classroom. It can be a quiet space, a comfortable space. Space where the child can come to catch their breath and gather their thoughts, perhaps regroup, perhaps even lose themselves in the pages of a good book. 

You can easily bring the book display to your favorite corner when it’s time for a story.  Our Nursery shelf Bookstand will fit anywhere as it is small enough to not take up too much room but also large enough to accommodate 10 books when stacked on top of each other.

It is heavy and sturdy, a child can hold on to it safely for standing up, starting from a very early age. The bookshelf comes with fitting accessories and is easy to assemble and store. Made with Eucalyptus ply and water-based varnish.
