The Montessori Method Quotes

“We have seen that a toddler needs to be surrounded to build fixed landmarks in his mind; he needs to move, to discover the environment by himself through the five senses, and he needs to do. All other needs of the toddler are always related to the sensory periods and are: Need for direct contact with the mother; Need to feel protected and safe; Need to develop relationships; Need to find stable reference points; Need its biological rhythms to be respected; Need for self-awareness as an individual; Need for freedom and independence; Need for a tailored space; Need for concentration; Need to use hands; Need to experience nature; Need for silence.”
