Toddler Session: The Science & Philosophy Behind the Montessori Curriculum
What's this WORK my child is doing? Kinda young for such seriousness? Not at all! Each Toddler is very solemn when it comes to revealing their personalities and honing their life skills. Join Ms. Barba & Ms.Thain for an explanation of the science and philosophy behind each area of the Montessori curriculum and how you can incorporate these concepts at home.
Maria Montessori said, "the child should therefore be methodically exposed to stimuli that will develop the senses rationally and thus lay the foundation for their mental powers."
