I spent a little twinkle of time today taking pictures in the kitchen. I love having special moments to just observe and soak in the splendor of the sun beaming in. Above are the photo results and here's a little delightful quote:
“We cannot create observers by saying "observe," but by giving them the power and the means for this observation and these means are procured through education of the senses.”
- Maria Montessori
Did you know Montessori was a spearheader in creating kindergarten the "right" way? If only we viewed teaching as she described it in your quote. Thanks for reminding me why I became a teacher. And one of the many reasons I love being a Mother.
