Open the door of self expression

 

If you want to enhance your child’s originality, persona, creativity and imagination, allow your child to do whatever he/she wants to do at whatever time that suits them. It might sound simple and obvious to allow a child do whatever he/she wants to do but it’s actually not a child’s play. It is a difficult and challenging job. So Instead of ‘Just Do It’ I would suggest ‘Just Let your kids do it’! Montessori School of Silicon Valley puts some light on it.

Being a teacher, parents or care givers, we naturally incline towards –

• ·         Demonstrate and teach
• ·         Share our excellent thoughts
• ·         Assist children in accomplishing their projects and tasks

These objectives may not be wrong or but anyhow they tend to over power or even demoralize our child’s natural instincts. The forcefully imposed teachings can develop unnecessary dependency and can hinder self motivated learning. Success means different for everybody and same goes for us and our children. We opt to have more goal oriented point of view towards success which can act like two faces of the same coin. It can either bring positive outcomes or some debilitate effects. Opportunities which are interesting, meaningful, affirming, enjoyable, stress busters, healing and confidence building could be enfeebled by our interference.  

Keeping this in mind Montessori School of Silicon Valley(MSOSV) has designed various programs like Enrichment Studio, Summer science program, lunch program etc. that provide toddlers an environment in which he or she can express and develop in a better way.
