As we get ready for our upcoming Art Show, I would like to explain how we see art in a Montessori classroom.

It seems like the developmental stage where our children are at relates to making good choices every day.  Our sweet toddlers can be very strong-willed, be creative in their way (can be unsafe in certain situations), or simply throw a tantrum very easily.  Dr. Maria Montessori mentioned "the birth of will" in toddlers. What it means is that young children, as our toddlers, are just starting to learn to make decisions but they usually don't have enough experience to make good choices. We need to guide them positively to help them develop these skills.
