Nothing better than great friends and sunshine! ☀️

In order to develop his consciousness, then his intellect, and then his will, he must have exercises and experiences.” ~Maria Montessori

They provoke a real intellectual activity…these continuous exercises, therefore, by means of which both spoken and written words are built up, do not only prepare the way for writing, but for correct spelling as well.” ~Maria Montessori
