In doing so, kids hardly get time to do the thing that they are meant to do %u2013 run, jump, hop, skip and play. Gone are the days when childhood meant running around the woods and exploring the neighborhood. Today, parents are too worried to send the kids next door to play.

The Montessori classroom uses concrete materials that are self-correcting and allow the children to learn at their own pace. These materials help the child to see, touch, feel, and freely explore their environments without the teacher's intervention. The Montessori teacher provides individual instruction within set guidelines. The children learn self respect, respect for others, and respect for their environment. Montessori methods and materials promote an inner discipline and self-motivation.
