Features: Let children enjoy the influence of the Montessori education method at an early age! In the 21st century, people of insight worldwide are constantly exploring early childhood education methods to cultivate talent. Among various educational theories, we particularly advocate the philosophy of Montessori education. Montessori places great emphasis on early intellectual development in children. She cleverly utilizes the natural growth needs of children, achieving educational goals without compromising their freedom and joy. She advocates starting with daily life training, combined with a good learning environment and abundant daily life supplies, to encourage children to learn spontaneously and actively, fostering qualities of independent thinking and self-education. This book is divided into four parts.
Part 1: Basic Movements. This section focuses on practicing basic movements, including activities that may seem easy to adults but are challenging for young children.
Part 2: Social Interaction. This part introduces necessary etiquette and rules for survival and daily life.
Part 3: Caring for the Environment. It primarily cultivates the habit of caring for and cherishing living and non-living objects around them, fostering a love for beautifying the environment and organizing items in an orderly manner from a young age.
Part 4: Self-Care Skills. Addressing issues such as poor self-care abilities, strong dependence, and a lack of confidence in children, this section includes practical examples from daily life for practice.
The activities in this book are designed using real objects from homes, and each activity can be extended and expanded into other activities. These activities aim to help children focus their minds, internalize a sense of order, naturally combine willpower with action, and build their independence and confidence through the joy of success.
