Best Of 2012: Human Day Care
Satisfying a child's "mental hunger" is what Montessori-style day care is all about, and Giving Tree has become the bar to strive toward in the Springs. Classic Montessori systems rely on student discovery and unobtrusive teacher guidance, allowing children to pursue and find their talents, strengths and self-confidence. "Our Peace Curriculum is still the cornerstone of our school," says Gisela Tilch, the director, teacher and owner. "We not only honor, but we celebrate, the cultural differences in the world. It's not just respect, but celebrating and realizing that differences are genuinely cool!" — Bret Wright
