NOT ALL LEARNING LOOKS BUSY 👀
🧡 Before a child tries, they may watch
💙 Before they join, they may observe
💛 While they are watching, they are learning
As a parent we often feel pressured to make them participate because we’ve paid for the lesson, they did it last week, the other kids are doing it….
Taking time to observe and transition is just as important for their learning, even if you’re late for a lesson.
And especially in an aquatic environment, where they need to be aware and feel secure in their surroundings for their own safety.
Take a breath, follow their lead with us and and let the magic of learning happen in their time.
A little reminder from Montessori teachings
