I thought that coz she’s a very active child. sitting for long hrs n doing as required is not for her. plus she’s quite independant so montessori gives her both freedom of choice n movement. it gives u that discipline from within thing. like for me it wasn’t that imp that she learns to read at 4 as it is how she develops an interest n urge for learning n MA she has achieved it so far. also as a child i always hated that traditional setting n thus thought my daughter being a reminder of my childhood might not like it as well.
