It is a time when children effortlessly absorb concepts and habits. It is also a period when the natural repetition of activities develops and maintains neural pathways in the brain which during these first 3 years are the most stable creating the child's learning foundation for life.
Think about your child. Observe.
At this age, What makes your child
the happiest?
Chances are he or she is attracted to
surroundings which are constant in pattern and
arrangement, and activities that are routine and have order.
At the same time, you'll probably find your toddler noticing
what adults don't... tiny objects, hidden corners, faint noises.
Montessori offers your toddler an experience
in an environment that focuses on a calm, neutral,
quiet background that supports their development. Montessori recognizes that all play has a natural
inner purpose to their development.
The classroom is carefully planned to meet the needs of toddlers
and organized for their convenience. Their day involves guided and
spontaneous activities that include:
Socialization - manners, communication, interaction and vocabulary.
Increased focus through uninterrupted exploration, repetition and choosing their own work.
Modeled respect and appreciation for their
environment and each other.
Materials - created with an intentional purpose
for exercise in fine and gross motor skills.
The children learn self-awareness through their ability to contribute
to their environment and each other. All of these daily activities builds
confidence and independence.
