Montessori found that the child's development is actually a sensitive period, in a specific period of the child will have a special ability to feel, this special ability to feel, will make the child particularly sensitive to some things in the environment, attention is also very concentrated and patient, and there is no response to other things, so this period is called the sensitive period!
If parents teach according to their children's sensitive periods, they can do more with less and quickly improve their children's minds!
For example, the child has a period of time especially like graffiti, in fact, his painting sensitive period, parents grasped, let the child learn to paint, you can play a multiplier effect, but if the parents feel that the child is always graffiti, the home is dirty, but it is forbidden for the child to draw, which will miss the sensitive period, and then want to let the child learn to draw the interest class, but also waste money and futile.
