A note from the founder
My name is Mandi Zielinski, and like you, I’m a Montessori homeschooler!
But, about a decade ago, I was anything BUT a Montessori homeschooler. Back then, I was a new mom of two under two. And, I was tired.
But, in those rare moments of lucidity, I was in awe of my two amazing kids. I remember the enormity of feeling like I held their educational fate in my hands.
I know the exhaustion and overwhelm of developing an authentic Montessori homeschool that won't break the bank, your back or your mind.
I recall overspending on Montessori manipulatives that my children didn't enjoy.
I remember the frustration of being unable to find what I needed. I thought to myself, "Is it too much to ask?"
I just wanted a authentic, fun and easy Montessori homeschool curriculum that my kids would love! And, was it too much to ask for a little child-specific personalization? My kids are such different learners; one-size-fits all education was NOT going to work.
Wasn't there someone somewhere that would do the research for me, spare me the lecture, make it easy, create activities both of my kids would love and learn from, and not charge me $10,000 for it?!
Enter Multisori.
MULTIple Learning Theory - informed and authentically MontesSORI, I now provide homeschoolers with the resources I wish I'd had back then. Here's how I did it:
I read the books and studies. All of them. (Shout out to law school for turning me into a speed reader!)
I learned the scope and sequence inside and out.
I delved deeply into the various types of intelligences.
I internalized Montessori values.
Then, I combined what I'd learned with the homeschooling values you and I share.
From freedom to child-led learning, to kinesthetic, hands-on activities, to ease of use, to portability, to customization to unrivaled engagement and multi-age learning, Multisori truly has it all.
My approach to education is simple and effective. I use a blend of strategies and tools to help you create an optimized Montesori learning environments that really work - all while staying true to the traditional Montessori scope and sequence and Montessori philosophy.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for wanting the best for your children. And, thank you for choosing to read this through bloodshot eyes and hormonal tears, even though all you really want is rest.

MULTISORI CORE VALUES
Homeschoolers face unique challenges that rarely mimic those of a classroom, so our products are designed with that in mind. Our MI-informed, Montessori curriculum is crafted especially for parents. It does not assume that you have specific classroom materials. It is visually engaging and works for multiple ages and intelligences. Most importantly, Multisori offers unparalleled support to our grown-ups. We don't assume that you have Montessori manipulatives, and our Montessori homeschooling curriculum is simple, time-saving and fun. Of course, if you want to splurge, we make recommendations for traditional Montessori manipulatives, alongside ideas for equally effective, but less expensive alternatives. With Multisori, both you and your children will want to "do school"!
Our MI-informed, Montessori curriculum nurtures a child-centered educational approach, makes it easy to prepare a thoughtful and attractive learning environment, and focuses on development of the whole child: physical, social, emotional and cognitive. Resources to support all of the various types of intelligence are included. Our core subject areas - Art, Geography, Mathematics, Practical Life, Science, and Sensorial - follow the traditional Montessori Scope and Sequence. And, just like Montessori in the classroom, Multisori is designed to feel like play, while nurturing independence and confidence.

Our History
Hi, I'm Mandi Zielinski, the founder of Multisori. I wear a lot of hats spanning everything from cancer survivor to attorney, but my favorite is being a homeschooling mom. I educate my two children using an MI-informed, Montessori approach.
Having been Montessori educated myself, I've witnessed firsthand the power of Montessori. However, as a busy professional and homeschooling mom, I found it hard to apply Montessori methodology outside of the traditional classroom environment. I saw that my children craved activities and ways of learning that weren't directly supported through Montessori works. As I worked through these issues, it became clear that other homeschoolers were struggling, too. Thus, Multisori was born:
MULTI(ple Intelligence Theory) + (montes)SORI
Multisori delivers a synergistic package for modern-day homeschoolers: Montessori’s strong, empirically supported pedagogy plus Multiple Intelligence Theory's unrivaled customization and engagement for children. The result is confident, high achieving kids who love to learn.
