Episode 10: Dr Montessori and Creativity
Update: 2021-06-30
Description
In this first of three podcasts on the theme of creativity, Barbara and David discuss Maria Montessori’s unique take on children and art. She did not focus on children’s naïve attempts at painting, colouring and Play-Doh, as is usually practised at nurseries. Instead she facilitated the young child’s desire to acquire grown-up skills — for example, seeing subtle differences in colours and shapes, and handling proper tools and materials — and she supported the child generally in discovering his or her authentic self. Montessori believed that together these early advances would foster, in due course, the child’s real creative potential.
