[Haniva Zahra · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wah ini buku Montessori yang sangat menyenangkan untuk dibaca. Hal yang paling saya sukai adalah karena satu pembahasan tentang aspek kehidupan yang beragam, meski cukup pada permukaan. Selain itu, yang kedua, adalah karena pendekatan Montessori yang disampaikan pada buku ini cukup fleksibel dan disesuaikan dengan kapasitas masing-masing keluarga. Pada buku ini yang dibahas tidak sangat fundamental dari Ibu Maria Montessori, tapi sudah dikaitkan dengan penerapan praktisnya. Secara umum, buku ini tidak bicara tentang pendidikan Montessori di dalam aktivitas belajar formal. Sesuai judul, buku ini menjelaskan bagaimana menerapkan Montessori dalam kehidupan keluarga. Saya merasa beruntung bisa bertemu dan membaca buku ini.

Good illustrations, terrible book repeating things everyone knows; stating the obvious. Go, play with your child instead.
