Book: Child Of The World – Susan Mayclin Stephenson

Book Child Of The World – Montessori, Global Education for Age 3-12+ – Susan Mayclin Stephenson

A favorite of parents and teachers around the world, the book child of the world – Montessori, global education for age 3-12+, is a wonderful resource for parents seeking thoughtful, sound advice on raising well-grounded children in a chaotic world. It contains ideas for raising and educating children from age 3 to 12 and older and presents Montessori principles in clear and eloquent prose.

The word “Montessori” is used today to describe schools that sometimes have little to do with authentic Montessori practices. In this book the author, who has almost fifty years of AMI Montessori teaching and consulting experience, briefly presents authentic Montessori practices for ages 3-6 (the primary class), ages 6-12 (the elementary class), and ages 12-18.

There are details for preparing the Montessori learning environment and for using these ideas in the home. This is not by any means a Montessori course but a valuable introduction to real Montessori and an inspiration for learning more.
