1. Introduction to reading pen
The Kidrise reading series is written using the Montessori concept and is specially designed for the healthy development of children's body, mind and soul. It advocates that the hands are the children's second head and that self-care skills can be learned through training.
A reading pen is an educational tool that can read sounds on books or other items. It can help young children improve their language skills, listening, memory and imagination.
Montessori's philosophy believes that children before the age of six learn through their senses, stimulating different areas of the brain from the five senses. Therefore, Montessori has designed a set of teaching aids suitable for children at different stages of development, including "sensory" and "daily life" , "Cultural Geography", "Chinese" and "Mathematics". Children can freely choose the teaching aids they are interested in and learn through play.

The crawling reading mat is a soft mat specially designed for young children. It has various patterns and texts that can be read, which can stimulate children's visual, tactile and motor abilities. The reading pen combined with the crawling reading felt can allow children to learn while having fun and enjoy a diversified learning experience.
Based on the original non-toxic and anti-bacterial baby learning crawling mat, a click-to-read function is added, so that newborn children can slowly come into contact with different things during the crawling period, rely on instinct to explore and learn, and constantly absorb new knowledge. At the same time, the click-to-read function attracts children to learn to crawl, and trains the mobility of small hand muscles and exploration.

Grasp every "sensitive learning period" of children
Montessori proposed that every child also has a "learning sensitive period", which means that during a certain period, the child will only become interested in something and will continue to repeat it.
If the sensitive period for learning is missed, the child will have to spend more time and energy studying in the future. Take the order-sensitive period of two to four years old as an example. Children in this period love routines. Whether it is breakfast, homework, play time, or even the order of dressing, they also require consistency and repetition.
