​Our House of Children helps the child to develop a spirit of love, patience, and humanity in a natural way, at the same time a desire is sown in him or her for acquiring knowledge, learning skills, and self-perfection.  The surroundings that are created should be those that help the skills and abilities to develop, which helps children's independence, so that they can take what they need, be an active member, and act freely within certain limits.

The child is capable of choosing his or her jobs in the created atmosphere, guided by the interest that awakens in him or her.  If the surroundings are rich and varied, it will allow his or her absorbing mind to function adequately.                             

Children of 3 to 6 years of age are interested in their language, the order of things, the place that every one of human activities occupies and their uses, writing numbers, mathematic symbols, learning through feelings.  All human activities that let them relate with others and their fine coordination.  In the environment of House of Children, we have the following areas:



Practical Life

The child, from a very early age, is interested in activities that adults do daily to take care of themselves and the space that they live in, for example: brushing hair, washing hands, getting dressed, eating, cleaning the table, sweeping, etc.

In the child these activities are even more important.  They are more than to preserving, they are constructive for oneself.  The activities of practical life are attractive activities to their willpower which is found in development—They are clear, simple, concrete activities that give the child the opportunity to have controlled movement.  They are activities that bring an implicit order to the activity.

The area is divided into various aspects:

-Personal care
-Caring for the environment: internal and external
-Grace and courtesy
-Control of movement



​Mathematics
The prepared environment should give the child the opportunity to develop the potential of the mathematic mindset, allowing him or her to have mathematic experiences before arriving to abstractions.  From the concrete to the abstract.

When the child is found in determined sensitive periods, we give him or her the sensory material that allows him or her to experiment with mathematical concepts.  The math material offered to the child impresses him or her visually rf through touch.  It helps him or her to develop thinking and reasoning necessary for subsequent abstract jobs.  The math work of Montessori is structured and in sequence, and it is correlated.



​Language
Through a great richness of material like vocabulary cards, sandpaper letters, and mobile alphabets,   we help the child to enrich and perfect their verbal expression, acquire writing, reading, and  grammatical  capabilities.  The environment should give the child the opportunity to express the culture of the human being.  The elements that are in said environment will allow the development of language in the infant.  To reach a true adaptation to the environment the child should develop their language potential.
-Conversations to build self-esteem.
-Vocabulary enrichment to build self-esteem.
-Written language acquisition to build self-esteem.



​Sensory
This sensory material is designed for children between the ages of 3 and 6.  The sensory materials were created or selected very carefully by Dr. Montessori.



The selection that she made of materials through observation based on:
-Spontaneous selection.
-Interest.
-Frequency of use.

​

The sensory material means that it is a material for the senses of:
-Sight: size, color, and shape
-Touch: temperature, weight, shape
-Hearing: noises and sounds
-Smell
-Taste

These sensory exercises are also an indirect preparation for the other areas: ​

Language and Mathematics.
