The #work of a #child is hidden in the form of #play . Through #innocent and #mischievous play, little children understand much about themselves and the simple lives that they lead. However, adults often fail to pause and understand the intent behind these acts and view them as behaviour that need to be reprimanded. Without comprehending why and how the innocent play began, we swoop in and rearrange the child’s play to restore our idea of order. This story is narrated by a tired mother who recollects her little child’s innocent play and shares with us the events that ensued. Between the lines of this story, there is much left for us learn from the mischief, the innocent 2 year old behind the mischief and the mother who witnessed the mischief! Thank you @uthroo for sharing this story with us! Link to full story in bio! ♥️ #childrenofinstagram #parenting #family #montessori #montessoriwork #processoverproduct #toddlers #lifewithkids

Involving little #children in the #kitchen is one of the simplest ways to help them understand the #food they are eating. It aids their #finemotorskills , encourages them to do for others, helps them be #purposeful and also supports judgement, #vocabulary and #refinementofthesenses This week, I’ve shared a simple #activityfortoddlers between 16&18 months in the kitchen. Share the recipe with more families of little children so that more of them can collaborate purposefully in the kitchen. . You can check out more recipes for children from 18 months to 6 years by following @srishti.education . . #toddlerkitchenskills #montessoriinthekitchen #montessori #montessoriathome #montessoritoddlers #earlychildhoodeducation #montessoriteacher #montessoriathome #toddlersofinstagram #childrenofinstagram #cookingwithchildren #purposefulwork #finemotorskills

A #snack can be a bag of #chips , a #fruit or a bowl of nuts. With more of us finding it hard to manage cooking our major meals, we have delegated the snack department to supermarkets which sport rows and rows of heavily #processedfood that are high in salt, sugar, unhealthy oils and other, far more complex ingredients, that have no business being in the food we eat. Since most of us don’t even realise the snacks we eat, it is time we pay attention to those silent fillers. Let’s hear more about snacks and how we can choose snacks for our children from a Mamma of an adorable three-year old from Chennai. . . .

With excitement, I share that on behalf of Srishti, I will be a columnist for the #indianmontessorifoundation monthly newsletter - The Touch Board - for the academic year 2019-2020. The Indian Montessori Foundation is a pan-Indian organisation founded with the vision of enabling #children to reach their full potential through the principles of #montessori education leading towards a more harmonious and peaceful world.

The #words that we use have the capacity to evoke either a response or a reaction from another person. They can create a #mindset that influences our approach to the world.Yet, with such power at our disposal, how often do we truly pay attention to the words we use and wonder how they impact others in our lives? #babies spend the greater part of their first year soaking up life in its entirety. Since they are observant little beings, they occupy a lot of their time watching how the adults around them interact with their #environment . When their bodies are finally able to match their intention, they move towards this wonderful environment they have been eyeing for months, only to hear adults say the word NO. The word NO literally means STOP! END! NO! Considering that this two letter word carries so much power, it seems that we use it too casually, too loosely in circumstances that do not even require such authority or intensity. What NO does to a Child 🍁NO subtly tells a #child that the world out there is not for them to explore and understand 🍁NO tells the child the world is a place that holds many threats and dangers curbing #exploration and promoting over reliance on another. 🍁NO makes children feel that they are incapable of handling the world. #dansiegel, in the book, #theyesbrain : How to Cultivate Courage, Curiosity, and Resilience in Your Child says, “Anything we give attention to, anything we emphasize in our experiences and interactions, creates new linking connections in the brain. Where attention goes, neural firing flows, and neural connection grows. And where neurons fire, they wire or join together. If you’ve been focusing a lot of attention on No! No! No! this is where neural firing flows, a No Brain reactive state.” So, How can we Shift Positively from NO to YES?

Stories about little children give us a peek into what goes on in their little heads. They sometimes jolt us awake with refreshing perspective and at other times test our patience and even make us laugh out loud! One of the column's in Srishti Education called Tales of Little Children brings to you stories of little children and highlights the unique period of childhood. This week, let's read about Akanksha and her strange love for hide and seek! Hope this story puts a smile on your face and makes you marvel even more at little children and their mischievous ways. Check out Srishti for more posts about little children. Link in bio! #children #childhood #parenting #family #fun
