After planting seeds and observing them in the class for a month, last Friday the children were able to transplant their little plants to the @nutritower and they absolutely loved it! #montessori #gardening #montreal #daycare #planting #nutritower #hydroponics #earlychildhoodeducation

The Care of the Environment activities in the Montessori classroom teach children important life skills at a young age. From folding clothes to washing windows, watering plants, sweeping, setting the table, polishing and even changing the water of a flower arrangement, children are very capable. If we set a good example and teach them how, they learn to respect their space and find joy in keeping their possessions cleanly and orderly. Do your children love to help around the house? #Montessori #classroom #pinktower #learning #education #montreal #senses #prek #childdevelopment #montessorium #écolemontessori #montessorimaterial #sensorial #montessorikid #mtl #westisland #garderie #teachingtools #kids #preschool #kidsplay #montrealkids #montrealfamilies #children #preschool #lifeskills

Beautiful! We absolutely adore our new sun and seasons mat from @wasecabiomes At many Montessori schools including ours, the Birthday Walk is a Montessori tradition to celebrate a child’s birthday. We talk about the sun and it’s importance to all living things on our planet. We explain to the child the earth takes a whole year to orbit around the sun. Starting at the month she was born, she walks slowly around the sun with the globe in her arms the amount of years she is... celebrating. This seasons mat is a fantastic addition to the activity as the child sees the beautiful wilderness scene change throughout the course of her orbit. Sometimes parents bring in past pictures of the child when they were previous ages and place them down after each circle. After her last orbit, the child can blow out the candle or use a candle snuffer. As parents you know, your children cannot wait for their birthday, it makes them so happy. Thus not only does this activity make your child feel extra special on her birthday but it gives her an impression of the cycle of time in a year. Some of our teachers have even done the walk . We can’t wait to try it out this coming week! #Montessori #classroom #pinktower #learning #education #montreal #senses #prek #childdevelopment #montessorium #écolemontessori #montessorimaterial #sensorial #montessorikid #mtl #westisland #garderie #teachingtools #kids #preschool #kidsplay #montrealkids #montrealfamilies #children #preschool #childrensbook #birthday #birthdayparty #birthdaycake
