We welcome you to the Sonia G Caballero Montessori Art School

The First Montessori Art School in the World founded by Sonia G Caballero.

From the School of Art of Sonia G Caballero, we begin a new unique project, ART & EDUCATION, ART & CONSCIOUSNESS, educating in the emotions and the deep mind which is what gives meaning to life. Art within education as a fundamental and absolutely necessary tool, giving rise to an integral education in which the individual unfolds his GIFTS and TALENTS, his IKIGAI, stimulating its flowering and facilitating its implementation and work is not work but a direct consequence of LIVING and ENJOY being able to realize your PURPOSE of life.

«As an educator, mother of three children and Art teacher for children ages 3-12 at Japan’s Montessori College, I became aware of where the authentic artist can be found and discovered that art is loved by all children. However, this interest begins to fade as the child matures. They just need to have the materials and tools. This ‘great-little artist’ emerges from carrying out a project with enthusiasm and freedom. As adults we strive, unnecessarily on many occasions, to try to mold the child by encouraging him/her to do things that we consider to be correct. However, by trusting their autonomy and letting them investigate and perform a task on their own, they can surprise us with fabulous results. On the other hand, it reinforces their self-worth and acceptance when feeling loved and useful.».

«Joy, feeling your own worth, being appreciated and loved by others, feeling useful and able to produce, are factors of great value to the human soul.»

María Montessori

DISCOVERING
THE ART OF CLAY

PRACTICAL LEARNING WITH PHYSICAL MATERIALS

This clay course for children is based on the Montessori philosophy and seeks not only to develop artistic skills, but also to instill positive values and attitudes. The course will emphasize the importance of courtesy and patience, guiding the children through our example. In addition, priority will be given to hands-on learning and physical materials, encouraging the child’s exploration and independence. Our role as parents is to guide the child as they learn on their own, rather than teaching in a directive manner.

Join the children on this exciting journey into the world of clay and Montessori learning!

Montessori Guide

"I highly recommend it. I bought it a few days ago and it is a marvel. You can see on each page the love with which it is made. Thank you very much. Although the creators are my daughters Claudia and Natalia, following the wonderful book by Sonia Caballero. I simply acted as a bridge..."

Cristina de La Rosa

University student

"Your book 101 Creative Projects was a great inspiration for me to write my dissertation. In addition, reading it has led me to continue researching, awakening a lot of curiosity and appreciation for Japan and its beautiful culture. I am enclosing my TFG in case you would like to take a look at it since I mention your book as an inspiration".

Manuel López

Escritor

"It is a really special book that brings ideas and concepts to both children and adults. I was especially struck by the concept of IKIGAI and the diﬀerent techniques of Japanese art. The most practical part of the book is developed as a project, with very illustrative images of all the techniques used. The projects that serve as a source of inspiration for the children are very original and based on sustainability and responsible consumption. Having a space in the book to put the photo of "MY PROJECT" gives a touch of interaction that the little ones love. In conclusion, I loved the subtlety with which she transmits her love and respect for Japanese art and customs".

Maite Lujanbio y Helen

Estudiantes

"We like this book very much because it transmits delicacy, elegance, softness, curiosity, innovation, freshness... It is an inspiration for us".

Martha Lewis

Mother

"I have heard from several people about this book through montessori networking groups ... . They sent me an interview of the book's presentation on Onda Cero Cataluña, from Ramon Soler's program Made in Japan on Sonia G Caballero's youtube channel and I couldn't resist buying it. I ﬁnally got it on the website of Sonia G Caballero. It teaches much needed terms that complement our western culture. An essential book if you are looking for alternative education, homeschooling, montessori, waldorf ...it is the ideal book. I bought it in the afternoon and it arrived the next day in the morning. Super happy. I recommend it 100%. Wait for all ages. The projects can be adapted according to the child. My daughter is 10 years old but the projects can be done from 4 to older if you like art. It teaches exclusive techniques of Japanese art, something unique and collected in one volume “.

Álvaro Trajano

“Family is created by moments together. Spending more and more quality time as a family is more and more complicated. Doing art projects together and strengthening ties while working on creativity in a harmonious environment”.

Alberto Lozano

Architect

“I am an architect and when I saw that this book was about architecture it caught my attention. The collaboration of Iván Acebedo, a renowned architect, is a very interesting contribution. The project presented in the architecture book was carried out by my 13 year old son, who presented it in high school and won the ﬁrst prize for Innovative Project and Environmental Conservation”.

Mina Yamamoto

Student

“I love this book because I can put the photo of my project in it next to Sonia Caballero's project and I feel like I am part of this book. My book is unique in that it also has all my work in it. I can't wait for Volume Two to come out so I can do the new projects”.

Sayuri Tateyama

Doctor

“My son was lucky enough to be taught by Sonia Caballero at Takane Gakuen Montessori School. He did not like drawing at all, the teachers told me that he started to participate with great enthusiasm in Sonia's art classes. I am very grateful, now even at home she draws and makes very creative designs. Some projects are unique and registered which makes it a very special book within the Montesori philosophy".

Sayaka Kato

Mother and Montessori Guide

“My daughter has trouble concentrating and has a hard time ﬁnishing a task or staying on task for any length of time. The projects proposed by Sonia Caballero have managed to capture my daughter's attention and she has managed to ﬁnish more than half of the projects in the book. She loves to put the picture of her ﬁnished project in the space that Sonia has left for each child to feel a part of this book. My daughter's concentration has improved and she is ﬁnding it easier and easier to complete tasks on her own. Thank you Sonia Caballero”.

Fred Leonard

Architect

“I heard great things about the 101 Creative Projects course. My granddaughter was taking art classes after school. She has great artistic skills, so I decided to give her this course as a gift. My daughter has told me that she is very happy, the projects are very varied and of a high artistic level in addition to working on values, environmental education etc. My granddaughter has replaced her art classes with this course because she can do it from home. I am very pleased”.

M. Nemer

Therapist

“A book that invites from the ﬁrst page to dive into the world of Japanese art. I love how in a practical and playful way it brings us closer to the philosophy of such a rich and interesting culture. It is an inspirational tool not only for the little ones but for the whole family. What better way to enjoy time with the little ones. Thank you for creating moments that will remain in everyone's memory”.

Sara Librán

Student

"I was really surprised when I opened the book because of the information so careful to make it easy to use with children and adults approaching art in an easy way and with a goal of free creative experience with speciﬁc guidelines you can achieve very diﬀerent results. Thank you for collecting in the book your work guidelines to help to bring out that connection with creativity and freedom”.

Jenifer Hoffman

Doctor

“What to say about this preciousness, magniﬁcent ideas to put into practice with children, mine is happy doing the activities, not to mention the philosophy that promotes a good basis for the growth of children. Magniﬁcent, I have already given away four copies and they have been a success. Thanks to the author from the bottom of my heart”.

Virginia Gil

Escritora

"Spectacular, totally recommended, as a gift will love. This Course is a gift that contains her art and her knowledge: the quality of the paper, the images, the layout. You can see that, in every detail, the artist has put her heart, her time, her knowledge. It has 19 practical exercises (there is a section reserved for "my project") very well explained and illustrated. One of the things I liked the most is to know concepts of Japanese wisdom and culture associated with artistic projects: IKIGAI, KOKORO WO KOMETE, MINIMALISM, WABI SABI, etc. As the author says it is a book to do together: at home, in any Montessori school, in any class that works by projects, in any art class. I loved it. I can only recommend it”.

Michiko Sakamoto

A lawyer

“My granddaughter is very happy with this course. She ﬁnds it very fun to do the projects and read the techniques and curiosities that the author writes with great aﬀection and interest for children. I love to receive as a gift the work that my granddaughter does with this book. I have given it as a gift to two other people and they are very satisﬁed with the variety of projects that touch on various topics”.
