The children’s house Montessori, Bukit Jalil City, Kuala Lumpur

ABOUT US
Since 1986, The children’s house is proud to be introduced as the first ever Montessori preschool in Malaysia. With over 40 years of history and 15 schools across Klang Valley, we’ve gained the trust and recognition of parents in nurturing children into compassionate and well-balanced individuals who are confident, independent, socially adaptable, and above all, positive and lifelong learners.

The Montessori Approach
The Montessori curriculum is scientifically proven, well over 100 years old, respected and accepted internationally. At The children’s house, children learn through a variety of activities:

	Activities are designed in such that children will be able to imitate physical tasks which aims to develop the child’s concentration, coordination of movement, sense of order and above all, independence.
	Concrete learning materials such as number boards are used to introduce the concept of numbers from the easiest counting to the more complex concepts such as place value, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and fractions.
	Using their stereognostic sense, language materials aim to enhance the children’s ability to form letter through specific hands-on materials such as sandpaper letters or alphabet blocks. Phonetic awareness enables children to form simple words and eventually complex sentences.
	Culture activities enable children to understand and gain knowledge of the world. Not only through music and arts, but also through topics such as biology, zoology, botany, geography and history.
	Sensorial materials aim to refine each of the children’s senses – sight, touch, smell, taste, sound and stereognostic.
