PHILOSOPHY

MONTESSORI KINDERHAUS MUTTENZ

We respect the uniqueness of every child, supporting and accompanying them in their individual development.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

HELP ME DO IT MYSELF

Help me do it myself.
Show me how it works.
Don’t do it for me.
I can and want to
do it by myself.
Have patience, my way
to understand.
Perhaps it is longer
maybe I need more time
because I want to make more attempts.

Maria Montessori

LEARNING ACCORDING TO ONE'S NEEDS

TRUE DEDICATION TO A CAUSE IS ONLY POSSIBLE WITH FREEDOM

We help children develop their will by giving them space to make their own decisions. We support them to think and act independently.

We give the children the opportunity to follow their own developmental needs, because children want to learn specific things at precise times.

The children find a prepared environment that encourages and supports independent action. We accompany them in their activities, however let them do everything that they are able to do by themselves. The journey is the goal, therefore we take as much time as necessary.

Using targeted activities, the children explore their environment in their individual manner and gain experiences in social, cognitive and motor spheres.
