Dr. Maria Montessori, a pioneer in modern education, believed that the "most important period of life is not the age of university studies, but the first one, the period from birth to age six."


Her theories about how young children grow and learn, focusing on the "absorbent mind" and natural curiosity of young children, have been confirmed by current research in early childhood education.

The Taunus International Montessori School - Frankfurt Area, following the philosophy and methods developed by Dr. Montessori, provides an opportunity for children in this most important period to learn and grow in a safe, nurturing, culturally-diverse environment.
