S1 E1- All about being a Montessori family, transitioning to regular school and co-parenting

January 31, 2020 • Simone Davies, Montessori teacher and parent • Season 1 • Episode 2

Want to really know what it's like to be a Montessori family? I'll be talking to my daughter Emma and my son Oliver who went to Montessori school up until 12 years old. And how they found the transition to a "regular" school (spoiler: not so difficult it appears). We talk about what it's like to be bilingual, things they remember from Montessori school, what it's like having a Montessori teacher as a parent, and even sex education in the Netherlands.

I'll also be talking to their Dad, Luke, all about co-parenting, communication, and raising Montessori children.

And sharing what I love about Montessori.

Listen right to the end for this week's listener question all about Montessori without spending a lot of money.
