Ayelet's Parent Meet

We, at Ayelet work closely with our parent community and we intend to grow in the same direction.

We are blessed to start our Montessori journey, with parents who genuinely care for their child's education. We believe it is essential for parents and  Montessori adults/guides to form a partnership of sorts, which works best for the child. We try to keep our parent communication extremely open. Our parent meet is an important step in this direction.

A week back, we had our first parent meet; and what an experience it was. Parents and older siblings took a back seat and saw their children work independently. Since, right now, we have a small group of parents, we hosted the meet together with both the parents attending the same. From next year, we plan to host a separate parent night for mums and dads.

We started with the circle time, our guests loved our welcome song and the weather song (which is a favourite with the children as well). We took the parents around. And then, just like magic, children took their work and parents watched with a big smile on their faces. We also had our art corner ready for children... painting with parents, is such a joyful experience!

It was soon time to leave and children refused to do that, they stayed back and so did the parents.

All in all, it was an amazing experience.

Montessori: Choosing the Right School

Choosing the Right Montessori for your Child It is an extremely daunting task to choose the right Montessori for your child. Fortunately, Bangalore is buzzing with Montessori Houses of Children around the city. There are a few problems associated with the same as well. The term “Montessori” has now become an adjective to attract parents. There are some great Montessori schools out there and a few which have attached the term Montessori for namesake.  Before you decide you’d be choosing a Montessori, you will have to do two things: You have to ask yourself a question: Is the Montessori Method right for you and your family? As Montessori is a way of life, you have to be certain you understand and agree with the same. The first step wouldn’t be complete if you don’t understand the method, hence you have to take out sometime and understand the Montessori Method. To choose the right Montessori you have to 'e xperience it' and then take your decision. You can lo...

Starting a Montessori House of Children

When I decided that I will start my own House of Children in 2013, I knew how I wanted it to be; but reality is different. When I launched Ayelet few weeks back, I realized that I have achieved what I wanted to, not exactly but close to what I wanted. The realization didn’t sink in completely and I got busy with ‘spreading around the word’, that is the toughest part of the journey till date. As I wait for those parent tours and registrations, I still know,soon, this place will be buzzing with little ones. What I set out to create? I set out to create a ‘Montessori House of Children’ in the true sense of the word. A warm space where each child gets a respectful, nurturing, joyful, creative, safe, exciting and inspiring environment.  When I meet some parents who do not have any knowledge about Montessori education, I try to show them the various aspects of Montessori education, which make the method so beautiful. It isn’t an easy task, but it is challenging. Then I mee...
