alaska, the montessori stuff are up but for pre-nursery i think they too young lei, don't see them using it on my boy.
crystal, i really dunno as i am not a pro-montessori parent, i chose CM is becoz of the environment, just a plus that it's montessori hehe :p
my friend told me that the true montessori method is to let the child dictate his own lessons/pace etc, no fixed schedule. for the modern montessori methods, there are some routine and fixed schedule for learning.
maybe alaska can tell you more?
thanks tubbykat
