Enter to Win: Montessori Documentary, Edison’s Day

September 16, 2014 / 61 Comments
Friends, 
I am so happy to be able to offer a free copy of Edison’s Day. It is my absolute favorite Montessori documentary. I have gushed about it many times. It’s a 30-minute glimpse into the life of a Montessori family. Edison is 20 months-old in the documentary, and you follow him through the day. There are beautiful scenes of him pouring water for a friend during lunch, helping his dad wash the family car, and helping his mom make dinner. I was (and continue to be) blown away by what a 20 month-old can do when the environment is set up in a way that supports his or her needs. It is so easy to underestimate what children are capable of. This film is beautiful and inspiring. I have watched it countless times and gain new ideas every single time.
The mother in the film, Sarah Moudry, is a knowledgeable and amazing Montessorian. You could not believe my surprise when I found a Montessori “Mommy and Me” class in Houston and she was the instructor. I felt like I was meeting a celebrity! I enrolled Henry when he was just five weeks old and stayed late after every class to pepper her with questions. I now regularly read her blog. 
I am thrilled to be able to host a contest to give away a free copy of Edison’s Day (valued at $45).
