The birthday child is invited to participate in the Montessori birthday walk. Children sing a traditional Montessori song as well as the popular birthday songs. The child’s personal ‘timeline’ will also be discussed. Parents are invited to share a nut-free snack with their child’s classmates. Birthday celebrations are limited to circle time (at the end of the work period) and cannot exceed 1/2 hour in length. Parents are welcome to participate, be sure to coordinate dates and times with your child’s teacher.
