This Little Montessori Child Wants To Pretend Play All Day

Child of the Redwoods: Podcast - Un pódcast de Child of the Redwoods

Here’s some for you, bunny. Now hedgehog wants some more! Some for me, too. And you, too, Mommy! Because pretend play, imaginative play, and fantasy play is SO hotly debated in the Montessori community, I get TONS of questions about it. Parents want to know — if a Montessori education emphasizes the real world, is there room for playing pretend? Or is that a waste of my child’s time? Today I am answering two questions about pretend play, and if you’ve been wondering, I hope you’ll find some answers for yourself in there, too! Join me in a discussion about child development as we explore the benefits of pretend play and what to do when our children want to play with cars or dolls all day. Love, Aubrey P.S.
