      This book is a mess and even worse, it really misses some of the points of Montessori. I don’t know if it was born out of a poor translation or what, but it’s AWFUL. The writing is terrible. It sounds like a paper I wrote in middle school. Go with Montessori Baby & Montessori Toddler. Don’t waste your time on this. I felt bad for the woman who narrated it. It must have made her nuts reading this trash heap.
    • 5/5
      This is a very useful book for those homeschooling a preschooler!
    • 5/5
      The book offers a review of the basic tenets of a Montessori education, then offers very concrete examples of how to carry out such an education for children from ages three to six. 5 stars for this!

    Conclusion 

    Introduction

    One of the best and useful occurrences in the education world was the birth of the Montessori Method to classrooms. Its advent was a long-awaited response to the need for a functional and focused education method. If you understand the importance of raising children the right way and grooming them with the right method, you will appreciate the effectiveness of Montessori above all other methods used in school.

    Many types of education have failed to put certain problems in education into consideration. The traditional method of education does not view children in the right light. Even though not all things are wrong in conventional education, children are not fully prepared to face life with confidence. The content of education and activities are determined by the teacher, and learners have no say in what they learn, but to follow whatever adults say or do.

    The truth is that learners should have the freedom to decide what they want to learn and when they want to learn. For twenty-first-century children to learn and gain more from school, the environment should be stimulating enough to provide the right atmosphere. So far, only the Montessori Method has most of the characteristics to build and develop a twenty-first-century responsible and brainy child.

    The aim of the Montessori Method is the development of a new brand of children who are both responsible and intelligent. Children are educated and shown practical skills that will make them survive and live in the modern world. They are encouraged to think independently and coached to respect others. These skills are essential for teamwork in the modern world and the realities of the present time require more of these virtues in employees and sports teams.

    The best way to equip children and prepare them to face the challenge of a modern world is giving them the right knowledge and skills. Old methods are ineffective in a complex and changing environment. The ability to adapt to understand how society works will help children cope and adjust in order to remain relevant in their world and career path.

    This book looks into the Montessori Method with the aim of making you see why your children at home or school need to be educated the right way and given the freedom to think independently and explore their environment. When a child is given the right education in the right environment and for the right reasons, growth and development take place. The Montessori Method is the way to go for the modern child in a modern world.

    The development of children includes physical improvement, intellectual development, language improvement, emotional development, and social improvement. All of the developments are very important, so it is essential for the parents to take into consideration all of the bodily, psychological and emotional necessities. Parents should monitor the ways of a child’s development to guarantee that they are growing in a correct way.

    Environment performs a crucial position in shaping and modifying the toddler’s development. It's more essential that the infant must be developed in the pleasant learning environment. There are several agents such as parents, caregivers, and other children who create a healthy learning environment for a child in the early ages. The learning preparatory environment involves all the specific places and situations in which a child learns and grows. The preparatory environment is considered the third teacher after the mother and father and educators because of
