Understanding children

the importance of the first three years of life

The book is dedicated to the most important period in the development of a person – the first three years. Then individuality develops and the basic qualities of the personality are laid. These qualities remain with a person throughout his life and determine his attitude towards life, towards the surrounding world and are decisive for his successful self-realization and happiness. This conviction of Maria Montessori is also shared by modern pedagogy and psychology.

In this book, Dr. Montanaro not only explains in detail the main theoretical aspects of the Montessori method for ages 0-3, but also gives adults the very important practical knowledge and recommendations on how to properly organize a child's daily life, how to help them develop optimally and realize their unique natural potential.

Here you will also learn more about prenatal life; the relationship between mother and child during pregnancy; birth and symbiotic life in the first weeks. Special attention is paid to the role of the father during pregnancy, birth and in achieving autonomy and independence of the child. Communication with the child and developmental crises in the first three years, the potential of the brain, the absorbing mind, the development of coordinated movement and the learning of several languages are also examined.

The book is written with a lot of love. It is extremely pleasant to read and easy to understand.
