Heart and Hands 2015 Kinder Quilt
“Of all things love is the most potent,” said Maria Montessori. A Montessori
classroom is a place of freedom and creativity, a place where nothing is “off-limits,” a
place where the heart and hands come together with joy. Your kindergartners traced
their hands on cloth, then were given free reign to design it:
“I get to draw it however I want?”
“I can use all the colors?”
Happy hands took to the task, pausing now and then for inspection, and finally,
setting it aside when the work was complete. The result is a kaleidoscope of brilliant
colors, each child’s hand like a window into their creative spirit. Representing over
300 hours of work from volunteers, place this lovingly created quilt over your
sleeping kindergartner as you return home tonight, cuddle up beneath it with books
on a rainy afternoon, or hang it in your child’s room as a keepsake of their special
time at MCS.
