"Solicitous care for living things affords satisfaction to one of the most lively instincts of the child's mind." (Maria Montessori, MD) At this age the child is naturally attracted to the colors, smells, sounds, of nature, and has a healthy interest in caring for and learning the names of plants and animals. Joining the adults in caring for houseplants, digging in the garden, feeding household pets, are all extremely satisfying to him. After real experience pictures and books provide an opportunity to communicate and learn more.
