This is a recording of our Live Talk with Simone Davies and Sylvia Arotin. They delve into various Montessori strategies, such as recognizing readiness for reading, fostering independent play, and adapting activities to a child’s interests as they progress from toddlers to preschoolers. They emphasize instilling independence within structured limits, handling discipline with kindness, managing multi-age learning environments at home, and supporting children’s social and educational growth. Practical advice on transitioning to preschool, addressing separation anxiety, and following children’s intrinsic motivations is shared, enriching parents and educators with valuable insights on nurturing early childhood development.
