MONTESSORI INSPIRED : Art Appreciation



Art

Reproductions of great masterpieces
 inspire an appreciation of beauty at 
any age. We hang them at the child's 
eye level. and provide art postcards to
 sort into groups, such as by artist.  


 Montessori 3-6 environments sometimes
 have a "museum" table, or shelf where 
beautiful objects can be brought into the
 environment for temporary exhibits. Since
 everything else in the room is available for 
handling, this gives practice in just looking, 
like in a real museum, and allows close
 exposure to beautiful objects that the child 
might not otherwise have. 


Whenever possible we give the best
of examples of art and the best art materials,
at the youngest, most impressionable age.
