What We Incorporate Montessori Inspired School in Mt. Pleasant, SC
1. Play Is Work
2. Engagment
3. Freedom
Play Is Work—Hands-on Learning
Montessori philosophy teaches us that play is how children explore the world. At Kids Garden, we take play seriously. Children have a natural desire for learning, which drives their curiosity and play. We support this natural desire with an environment, tools, and materials that encourage learning.
Our educators carefully observe each child and then create personalized, play-based learning experiences that resonate with each student’s interests and abilities. This commitment to individualized education allows children to flourish at their own pace, exploring topics that fascinate them in a supportive and enriching environment.
An Engaging, Prepared Environment
To support play-based learning, our space is designed to reflect Montessori’s concept of a prepared environment. Our classrooms offer children a variety of natural materials and hands-on activities that stimulate learning across different domains.
From sensory activities to practical life exercises, each aspect of our environment is intended to develop everyday skills, inspire curiosity, and foster independence. Our creative arts resources further enhance this landscape, providing children endless opportunities to express themselves and explore their artistic talents.
At Kids Garden, we integrate sustainable and green practices into every aspect of our curriculum, using eco-friendly materials and teaching the importance of environmental stewardship. This approach not only enriches our Montessori-inspired learning but also instills a deep respect for our planet in the next generation.
Freedom Within Limits
A key aspect of our Montessori-inspired approach is cultivating independence. We give children the freedom to choose from the carefully prepared activities we present to them. This freedom of choice stimulates creativity and a desire for learning. It also encourages independence, an important trait for growing children.
We also encourage a sense of community and belonging. At Kids Garden, children learn to:
- Collaborate with peers
- Engage in respectful interactions
- Communicate effectively
- Take responsibility for their learning space
This balance of personal growth and social development is central to our philosophy at Kids Garden, reflecting the core values of Montessori education within the context of our broader community.
