The Montessori philosophy, developed by Dr. Maria Montessori over a century ago, is a child-centered approach to education that emphasizes independence, hands-on learning, and respect for a child’s natural development. While it’s often associated with schools, the Montessori method can be seamlessly integrated into your home, creating a nurturing environment that supports your child’s growth and curiosity.

At the heart of the Montessori philosophy is the belief that children learn best when they are given the freedom to explore and discover on their own. This approach encourages Independence as children are given the tools and opportunities to do things for themselves, from dressing to choosing activities. Fostering self-reliance and confidence. Montessori emphasizes learning through experience. Children are encouraged to use all their senses to explore the world around them, leading to deeper understanding and retention of knowledge.

Thus an important aspect of creating a good environment for Montessori is to have a child-friendly environment with accessible furniture that is suitable for children, this environment will ideally allow your little ones to engage in activities independently and safely.
