| Summary | "Montessori Children" by Carolyn Sherwin Bailey is a work on educational philosophy written in the early 20th century. The text focuses on the Montessori method of education, exploring how children under this system develop their personalities through self-directed learning and various hands-on activities. The author emphasizes the importance of providing children with freedom and a supportive environment to nurture their innate curiosity and potential. The opening of the book sets the stage for Bailey's observations of the Montessori approach in Rome, where she had the opportunity to witness children as they engaged with the learning materials in their environment. It introduces Maria Montessori, a pioneering figure in child education, and discusses her philosophy, which advocates for the liberation and natural development of children rather than adhering strictly to traditional teaching methods. Bailey shares her impressions and insights on how children—like Margherita, who arrives at a childhood center with a sense of purpose—thrived in a setting that encouraged exploration and independence, highlighting the transformative effects of Montessori's teaching style on the lives of young learners.
