Starting a New Classroom? Here’s the First Step
Furnishing and supplying a new early childhood classroom is often the most time consuming and confusing part of getting started. From selecting the right furniture to choosing appropriate learning materials, every decision feels important and getting it wrong can be costly.
This is exactly where XihaMontessori steps in. Our Classroom Lists are designed to streamline the entire process by giving you a clear and well organized starting point. To access the right list for your needs, simply reach out to our team or fill out a short form so we can match you with the most suitable version. Instead of guessing what you might need or spending weeks researching individual items, you begin with a thoughtfully prepared list that reflects real preschool classroom needs. It’s a faster and more confident way to plan, budget and move forward.
In the sections below, we’ll walk you through what a XihaMontessori Classroom List is, how it works and why so many educators begin their journey with this simple yet powerful tool.
What is included in a Xihamontessori Classroom List?
A XihaMontessori Classroom List is a customized product recommendation based on your actual classroom layout and teaching needs. It is not a generic catalog. Every list is created by our team after reviewing basic information you provide, such as classroom dimensions, student age groups, and how you plan to use each space.
Once we receive your input, our specialists select suitable preschool toys and furniture for each room. You’ll receive a detailed list of items tailored to your setup, covering areas such as practical life, sensorial, language, math, culture, and more. We focus on both function and flow, ensuring that all materials support independent learning and age-appropriate exploration.
In addition to the itemized list, we also provide 2D and 3D layout plans for each classroom. These visuals serve as your daycare floor plan, helping you see how the space will look and function before any materials are ordered. Our goal is to give you a complete, ready-to-implement environment that meets your center’s specific needs.
To begin, simply send us your classroom layout and a few details about your program. Our team will take care of the rest.
What Makes Our Classroom Lists So Useful
Proven Product Quality You Can Trust
Every item included in your Classroom List is carefully selected through a dual approach. Many materials are designed and produced by XihaMontessori, giving us full control over quality and safety. For other categories, we source from trusted global manufacturers who meet our strict standards for durability, child safety, and classroom suitability. Every product has been tested and approved by our team to ensure it performs well in active learning environments.
Global Design Experience Behind Every Layout
Our design team has supported thousands of early childhood classrooms across the world. We do more than just provide a list of items. We help you plan a complete and functional learning space. From shelf placement to how natural light enters the room, every layout is shaped by real-world experience and the needs of daycare educators. This practical knowledge is reflected in every recommendation we make.
Every Detail Considered for Everyday Teaching
We think like teachers when designing your space. That means planning for child movement, independent access to materials, storage capacity, and classroom flow. Each list recommends the right quantity of materials for your age group to avoid clutter and create a calm, organized environment. You can focus on teaching without worrying about overbuying or missing key items.
Ongoing Support When You Need It
After you receive your Classroom List, our support does not stop there. If your space changes or your needs grow, we are here to help you adjust the plan. We can revise product selections, suggest new layout options, or help you expand into additional rooms. Our goal is to be a long-term partner in your daycare journey.
From Furniture to Materials, Everything Is Included
A well-prepared daycare classroom needs more than just shelves and learning materials. It requires a balanced environment where every element supports independence, order, and exploration. That is why each XihaMontessori Classroom List is designed to cover every part of the classroom, from the practical to the inspirational.
We include recommendations for all core learning areas such as practical life, sensorial, language, math, and culture. You will also find furniture suited for child-sized movement and access, including open shelves, tables, chairs, and floor mats. Even details like rugs, trays, tongs, pitchers, and display stands are considered so you do not need to worry about missing essential tools.
Beyond the learning zones, our lists also account for real classroom needs including entry areas, storage zones, changing tables, kitchenettes, and reading corners. These elements may seem small, but they are critical to daily flow and comfort for both children and teachers.
Everything is arranged with the overall layout in mind. Whether your classroom is small, spacious, or follows an open-plan design, the list helps ensure that no area is overlooked and every square meter is used thoughtfully.
From Infants to Upper Elementary, We’ve Got You Covered
Every stage of childhood brings unique developmental needs, and your classroom should reflect that. At XihaMontessori, we support learning environments for children across a full range of ages, from the earliest months of life to the upper elementary years. Our Classroom Lists are not one size fits all. Each version is carefully created to match the abilities, interests, and learning patterns of the age group you serve.
Whether you are setting up an infant room, a toddler environment, a mixed age primary classroom, or a more advanced elementary space, our team will help you choose the right materials and furniture for that stage. Below is a breakdown of how we approach different age levels and what you can expect from each list.
Infants (0–18 months)
For infant classrooms, we focus on safe, natural materials that support early movement, visual tracking, and sensory exploration. Low shelves, floor mirrors, grasping toys, and soft furniture are recommended to help infants engage with their environment at their own pace.
Toddlers (18 months–3 years)
Toddler environments require materials that support coordination, early language, and independence. Our lists include child-sized furniture, self-care stations, and manipulatives that match this age group’s increasing mobility and curiosity. Practical life tools are simple and purposeful, helping toddlers begin to take care of their environment.
Primary (3–6 years)
For primary classrooms, we include the full range of preschool toys across practical life, sensorial, language, math, and cultural subjects. At this stage, children begin focused, self-directed work. Our Classroom Lists ensure you have enough materials for small-group and individual use, while also supporting mixed-age dynamics typical of primary classrooms.
Lower and Upper Elementary (6–12 years)
Elementary classrooms require deeper subject exploration and more advanced materials. We provide age-appropriate workstations, subject-specific shelves, and extensions for geometry, grammar, biology, and research activities. Furniture is adapted for growing bodies while still supporting student independence and classroom organization.
Custom Mixed-Age Classrooms
If your program includes multiple age groups in the same space, we can combine and adjust lists to create a balanced setup. Our team understands how to manage overlapping needs in a way that keeps the classroom organized, functional, and fully aligned with Montessori principles.
Custom Recommendations Based on Your Layout and Needs
Not every classroom comes with a clean layout or standard dimensions. Some have odd corners, limited storage, or shared spaces. Others may need to be planned in phases due to budget or construction timelines. At XihaMontessori, we are used to working with all types of real-world situations, and our custom recommendations are built to handle them.
If your space is still under construction, we can help you make early decisions based on draft plans. If you are retrofitting an existing room, we will work around fixed elements like windows, doors, or built-in furniture. For multi-classroom projects or full centers, we can coordinate across rooms to ensure consistency and smart use of shared resources.
Our process is flexible. You can choose to order everything at once or divide your purchases over time. We will provide a clear recommendation structure so you always know which items to prioritize first and which ones can wait for the next stage.
With our team involved, custom means more than choosing products. It also means planning your classroom setup in a way that fits your timeline, space, and educational goals.

Setting up a Montessori classroom does not have to feel overwhelming. With the right guidance, a clear layout, and materials that truly support children’s development, the process becomes not only manageable but inspiring. That is what the XihaMontessori Classroom List is designed to provide.
