“The first aim of the prepared environment is, as far as it is possible, to render the growing child independent of the adult.” – Dr. Maria Montessori
The “prepared environment” is a Montessori’s concept that understands our living and learning spaces can be designed to facilitate maximum independent exploration by the child. In the calm, ordered space of a thoughtfully prepared environment, children work on activities of their own choice at their own pace. They experience a blend of freedom and self-discipline in a place especially designed to meet their developmental needs. During our time together, we will be exploring how simple changes to your home environment can help your child flourish.
