[quote=Anonymous]It depends on what your personal/family goals are. We did both (first play-based, then currently Montessori). We have an only child so we like that she is in class with older kids that she looks up to and likes to emulate. The older kids are mature beyond their ages and are a good influence on her. As first time parents we made a lot of mistakes and didn't foster as much independence as we would have liked (e.g. child comes into our room in the middle of the night to sleep). Montessori has helped her and us give her more freedom and has really encouraged her independence. I actually prefer play-based curriculum because I believe in creativity and imagination, but now that my daughter is in Montessori it's hard to pull her out. I see such major differences that I don't think would exist in a play school.[/quote]
