I'm considering putting Lil M in Montessori school... but am not completely sure this would be beneficial for her. She is 3 and I think by next year she will likely be bored at daycare... even though it has "preschool" for a couple of hours each day. I just don't know that it is enough...
We went to a function the other night where there was a child a little older than Lil M (approx 3.5 years old) and he had a really rough time with his speech... he apparently doesn't know his colors or counting either or ABC's... Lil M, on the other hand, can count to 20, can say all her ABC's, knows a lot of colors (even colors like gray and silver), and can recognize most of her alphabet in writing (capital letters). I didn't think this was too much to ask of her, and am quite proud, of course, but it does make me wonder if she'll be bored with daycare soon.
Of course, then there is a "real" school schedule to deal with, like holidays and week long breaks and such.
Regardless, I'm going to keep teaching Lil M at home and if she's ahead of the other kids, so be it. ;-)
Peace.

She'll let you know if/when she gets bored. Obviously she won't articulate it with her words, but with her actions. Keeping her home is a good idea. She's a smart kid and you're a GREAT mama!
