What does school look like for your child? Have you ever considered homeschooling or Montessori?  My dear friend Pilar came over after a day of homeschooling her two children and sat down with me to share her journey from full-time teacher to now full-time homeschooling parent.  What we Talked About Her journey from being a Montessori child, a teacher, and now a homeschooling parent of two.  How important it is to evolve as a parent to meet our children’s needs.  The significance of observation as a skill to aid our children to reach their full potential.  And how to use the Montessori didactic material to assist in understanding bigger intellectual concepts.  Things to Remember "You are a facilitator in your child’s life." -Pilar Bewley "Start where the child is interested." -Pilar Bewley   Click here for Show Notes and more from Jeanne-Marie, Your Parenting Mentor.
