[quote=Anonymous]I tried both play-based and Montessori with my son and he has thrived in Montessori. I have all the toys they had in his play-based classroom (kitchen, trucks, magnatiles)whereas the Montessori has a tremendous number of more interesting materials. At the same time, there are always art supplies available in several stations for him to work on projects. He has recess twice a day and time exploring nature twice a week. In the end, it is probably the teachers. His teachers in the play-based school did not engage him and it seems he didn't do much of anything in his half days. The Montessori teachers recognized the same problem and worked to get him to try things and become comfortable. In the end I think its what works for your child and family. For example, some of these outdoor preschools sound fantastic but are no where close to where we live.[/quote]
