Montessori parenting classes to start in January

Montessori Centre International (MCI) is running two free six-week parenting workshops for parents of young children next year.

The two-hour sessions are open to all parents and carers of children from birth to five and will take place over six consecutive Saturdays at the V&A Museum of Childhood in Bethnal Green, in January and November 2014.

Each session will focus on a different aspect of the Montessori method, including the role of the parent, play, encouraging independent behaviour at home and stimulating the child’s learning journey.

Topics also include daily routines – sleeping, eating and potty-training, and setting boundaries.

The workshops have been developed as part of the charity’s Community Manifesto, which was launched last year, a two-year plan for widening access to the Montessori method to include the most disadvantaged communities.
