What Makes a Montessori Toddler Program Unique?

Nurturing Curiosity and Confidence in Every Child

Early childhood is the period of active development and exploration. One of the ways in which a Montessori Toddler Program accommodates this vital stage is in cultivating independence, confidence and a desire to learn. Our toddler classrooms in The Green Meadows Montessori have also been designed to enable every child experience, develop, and create in a safe and conducive environment.

Understanding the Montessori Toddler Program

The Montessori Toddler Program is founded on the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori who considered that children were able to learn in the most appropriate way through practical activities as well as freedom within bounds. Instead of using group instruction, Montessori toddlers also learn through exploration of materials and through their own choices under the guidance of trained teachers who oversee and allow natural growth to occur.

Key Features That Make a Montessori Toddler Program Unique

1. Child-Centered Environment: The classroom is designed to accommodate the toddlers, featuring child-sized furniture, open spaces and materials where the toddlers can learn and explore on their own.

2. Practical Life Activities: Everyday activities such as pouring, cleaning, and dressing will help in becoming coordinated, confident and responsible at a very early age.

3. Sensory Exploration: Hands-on learning materials use all the five senses, which is helpful in letting the toddlers perfect their motor skills and enhance cognitive abilities.

4. Individual Learning Pace: Each child will learn at his or her own pace, which will promote self-esteem and true pleasure in studying.

5. Social and Emotional Development: Group life educates students in cooperation, in empathy and in respect which will be fundamental principles of future success in life.

6. Trained Montessori Educators: Teachers facilitate learning, not telling, and assist toddlers in discovering, problem-solving, and gaining independence on their own.
