My sister is a SAHM and she put her 3 year old in a montessori program - and its the best decision she ever made!
He loves playing with the other kids and learning new ideas. His personal growth has been amazing because he needed structured learning. His teacher said that he is a “keen advocate of social justice” - he hates when kids are treated inquitably.
The thing is being with and among other children and away from home has allowed him thrive. It has nothing to do with my sister’s parenting, rather children need more than to be attached to mommy’s apron strings - they need to learn to be with others and unless you have other kids at home who challenge you outside of your comfort zone or a mum that is trained or capable of teaching you (which most aren’t) - disciplined learning is a great option.
From what I am reading and from talking to different people who enrolled their kids into the pre-school Montessori program, they are so happy with the results. :k:
It may be expensive, but it’s worth it.
