Julia Brown Montessori School, Laurel

From birth, children begin to develop the skills and to acquire the knowledge characteristic of adulthood. It is their greatest undertaking – developing the adult person they will become. colorbox2During a child’s early years, when he is developing his mind, he is in constant motion. Movement is the natural steady state for a young child because it is through motion that he learns. We see children coming to grips with their environment, and we often call it play; but it is indeed work. The touching, the manipulating, the tasting, the smelling are all part of the difficult task of becoming an adult. At The Julia Brown Montessori Schools, we work with nature, not against it, in helping your child achieve his or her goal. Our program accepts the endless energies, the creative impulses, and insatiable curiosities of the children and gradually directs their efforts into rewarding channels.
