Austin Montessori School’s Parent Infant Group is a welcome opportunity for parents to heighten their observation skills of their infant under the sensitive guidance of Gwen Logan. This infant has struggled to reach and has at last grasped the hanging ring without the interference of adult help or the obstacle of adult comments. No one can take away the accomplishments that we allow an infant to gain on his own, without our help, by his own effort, in an environment we have prepared for him to master by himself! Such self development is of the highest value. This is the essence of love–giving an infant a prepared environment and observing, protecting, and respecting his efforts within it!
