Peanut Montessori

Yesterday I went to a daycare liquidation sale and happened upon an awesome play structure that I knew we needed for our outdoor space. I had them hold it for me and then began wondering how on earth we were going to get this huge structure to our new building. I reached out to one of our current families and within minutes they said they could have a company truck pick it up tomorrow. Not only did they bring a truck, but they also brought man power to help load it into the truck and haul it to the new property. We are so thankful for our incredibly loving and supportive Peanut Families 🥰😇 .cohron .lemke3 @ Broad Ripple

It’s !! 🌟 This friend is the oldest in our class this year. She frequently reminds her friends she is the “leader”. She loves to help unzip tricky coats, grab me a diaper when I am short a hand, and help her friends whenever they need it. Her vocabulary has been huge since she was 18 months. The things she says keeps me laughing daily!! Especially when she is explaining her women’s suffrage shirt. This girl is pure JOY!! @ Broad Ripple

It’s 👏🏼 This friend turned 2 a few weeks ago as well. He is easy going, joyful, and super chatty these days! If anything note worthy happens in this guy’s life you will hear about it every few minutes for the next few weeks. 🤣 He is always up for a hug from his friends and is such a joy to have in the classroom ❤️ @ Broad Ripple

Welcome to our first 👏🏼 This friend just turned 2 a few weeks ago! She is hilarious, spunky, and so cuddly. She loves to love on her friends, but is also very expressive when she needs her space. She has recently been really interested in puzzles. She likes to get all three out at one time and go to town. Her focus is amazing!

🌟Happy Sunday, friends! One more week of school until Winter Breaks. I can’t believe how fast the first half of the school year has flown by. We are in such a beautiful routine over here.⠀

🌟As a Montessori teacher, I am always reminded this time of year why we put so much work in during the first few months of school. The exhaustion of “please put your work back on the shelf”, “that piece stays with that work”, “please change your shoes”, “gentle hands”, “we only eat what’s on our tray”, “check your space for a mess”, etc. So much work! But it so pays off! ⠀

🌟A few days this last week I felt like the toddlers could run the day without me. That’s what Montessori is all about. I love watching the joy on their faces as they independently move through their day.

The all-school cookout was tons of fun today! Beautiful weather, yummy food, and the best families around town 😉
