Shapes in a gentle introduction to the Montessori method for children and adults. It is an hour and 15 minute class for children aged 18months -3years and their accompanying adult. The Montessori environment is carefully prepared to appeal to the age/stage of development of the children. The children will be free to explore at their own pace, and free to choose whichever activities interest them. As the teacher observes and gets to know the children and their families, activities will be incorporated to suit the individual needs and interests of each child.
