Child Development Education

Parenting can be quite confusing. A generation ago, our parents had to guess how to raise kids successfully. They were asking their parents, their friends, and doctors, hoping that their advice will bear some fruit. Nowadays, it seems like almost we solved this problem too well - having tons of information available that can also contradict itself.

Emotional regulation is the foundation of a child’s success at school, in relationships, and in life. Yet most kids are not born knowing how to manage their emotions. Meltdowns in the grocery store, angry outbursts at home, or tears over homework all point to one thing—big feelings they haven’t yet learned how to handle. Without guidance, these moments can easily overwhelm them and hold them back from thriving. This book offers a clear and practical path forward for parents, teachers, and caregivers.

Children’s future successes depend on developing the abilities to innovate, be resilient in the face of their mistakes, problem-solve creatively, and collaborate with peers effectively. However, standard American educational practices—stressing memorization, grades, and testing—are failing to foster these skills. There is one complete system of education that effectively supports the natural development of such essential abilities: Montessori. Montessori education expert Paula Lillard Preschlack offers a clear explanation of how the Montessori approach helps children.

Without any doubts, toddlers can be either tricky or lovely. When my children were small, I felt that I was struggling to get them to do things (without using any punishment, of course!). Sometimes, the only alternative was to bribing, threatening, or putting them into time out. I always worked as a teacher in Montessori education. Montessori method, named for the Italian physician Maria Montessori, stresses the importance of the development of a healthy self-concept: “One becomes a well-balanced adult only if one has fully been a child.”
