We’re very much in tune with the Montessori method, since Salina was born. She first attended Montessori school when she was 2.5 years old. Creating a natural and organized learning environment for her is at the top of the list. Salina was drinking from glass cups, using real cutlery, eating meals prepared for the family sitting at the table with us from a very young age; she helped me put away the dishes and do laundry, and we set up her room at home in the Montessori way because we believe children are very capable and deserving to learn in an organic way. At her young age now, she is very aware of mannerisms, being gentle and kind  with others, being helpful, being thoughtful, and taking her time at each task. She is very accustomed to looking after and helping younger children, while looking up to and learning from older children - the classroom set up for Montessori is great for her. We want Salina to continue this wonderful growth and we feel Montessori’s practical, hands on style and working with Montessori materials is a completely different experience from traditional teaching methods. It is so beneficial for her and we apply and continue to learn from Maria Montessori ourselves as grown ups too! We feel that she will continue to develop her character and hone her skills and natural talents in the best possible way, and will grow up to be an amazing person whom contributes to the greater good, is conscientious and will be the absolute best she can be at whatever she chooses to do.
