Colorful Worms Spring Sensory Play for Toddlers with Worksheets (1-2 Year Olds)

María Montessori was a doctor with training in biology and anthropology. She carried out different investigations initially focused on children who, at that time, were considered abnormal, in other words, with children who were in disabling conditions. The main objective of this was to reduce the rate of abandonment of children on the streets.

Montessori pedagogy works on three fundamental principles that determine children's learning processes, "a prepared environment, a humble teacher and materials." A prepared environment is a place designed by the adult in which children can freely explore, where they can get to know themselves and their surroundings at the same time.

The adult is the one who must have the ability to identify children's needs, design the space where they can develop their skills, respecting the learning moments of each child. The different times of learning, and the personality of each one. Finally, the materials must have the quality of being attractive to children. Through their manipulation, children can develop their skills.

With the Montessori learning method, children develop their skills freely, strengthening their autonomy and independence through their own choice of materials. It is essential to highlight that children learn in a specific way; that's why it is crucial to manipulate the material and learn from their own experience. Children receive their worldly learning by using their senses. They must obtain adequate stimulation of their senses using different textures, colors, sounds, and temperatures.
