The Absorbent Mind
Montessori broke the Absorbent Mind down into two phases: the unconscious (from 0-3 years old) & the conscious (from 3-6 years old). During the early years, children absorb everything from their surroundings effortlessly, forming the foundation of their personality, independence, and understanding. As they transition from unconscious learning (0–3 years) to conscious exploration (3–6 years), they begin to organize impressions, make sense of their world, and develop confidence. At Samskruthi, our KG environment nurtures this natural process through sensory experiences, meaningful activities, and opportunities to learn joyfully and independently.
