A Montessori education provides a world of opportunity for children to develop creativity, compassion, problem solving skills,gratitude, and finding joy in everyday mindful activities such as cooking, gardening , daily organizing -- and social skills at the table with family and in community with others. A life of simplicity and joy in the everyday small things -- is a life of love, grace, and contentment. We want the best for our children. Personal Happiness is the best gift we have to offer. I offer a good rating for the author taking time to write this publication in the hope of creating an interest in the heart and soul of what Montessori has to offer.
