Supporting Your Child the Montessori Way

These suggestions will help your child develop a love of learning and self-motivation, which is foundational to their continued growth:
  • Follow the child in all things.
  • Slow down and move at the child’s pace.  Trust the child’s ability to learn and develop at his or her own pace.
  • Observe, then react.
  • Respect the child as a whole person.  Treat the child as you would be treated.
  • Help your child with the hardest part of a task (not the whole task).
  • Be consistent; follow routines and clear sequences for each activity.
  • Let go of perfection. What you are experiencing now is not the final goal. It is foundational.
  • The process is important, not the product.
  • Enjoy and appreciate time with your child.
