Montessori Parenting: Unveiling the Authentic Self

This book is very informative. I value how it is advocating for moderation and not parenting in a extreme poloarized way.

I'm thrilled I bought this book. It really makes me feel good about the way I would like to raise my daughter. Children are separate from us and this is a nice reminder. It is a very spiritual book though, which I enjoy, but others who are not into that much spiritualism may not enjoy it as much.

Very intresting and complete.

TL; DR

This book is a must for any caregiver who is looking for practical application of the Montessori principles at home. It also tackles how to nurture a child's self-formation by simply explaining how children function and what we can do to nurture their inner natural abilities, and providing really clear and detailed examples of what we can do in the environment or the way we can communicate to support this rich environment.The book is reasonable and realistic in his application. After reading it, you should feel ready to prepare your home and feel empowered. Unlike a recent Montessori toddler book that was published recently from another author, this book provides the science behind the method, which backs up your practices as well. It refers to many renowned sources that reflect thorough studies and correlate with Dr. Montessori own findings.

I highly recommend this book “Montessori Parenting: Unveiling the Authentic Self.” As a former Montessori school director myself, I heard so often from teachers that they wished there was time to really orient parents to the perspectives and practices of Montessori as it would make such a difference for their relationship with their child and for their child’s development. This book provides great insights and practical suggestions for parents to do just that. Every parent I know loves their children profoundly. But understanding HOW children develop is sorely lacking. We are all shaped by our experiences and tend to fail to recognize the brilliance of young children. I love the emphasis on authenticity in this book. If you’re a parent who appreciates Montessori education and wants to learn how to implement the magic in your own home, get this inspiring book.
