FREE: Montessori Sensitive Periods Cheat Sheet
In this first episode of The Early Years Series, Anya Garcia is making the case that Montessori is not an aesthetic. It is a 100-year-old argument about how human beings actually develop.
You'll learn who Maria Montessori really was (a scientist, not a decorator), the anthropology of why humans have the longest childhood of any species, what the first six years are actually doing inside your child's brain, and why understanding the philosophy matters more than owning any material.
Children are only little once. If you do it right, once is enough.
