Program contents
Day 1 – 14:30-16:30
Montessori x Wood Education ① (Banquet Terrace Room)
The theme is to encourage independence through play!
Through playing with the wooden toys from the Toy Museum, children will come into contact with the core principles of Montessori education.
What is Montessori?
Montessori education, founded by Italian physician and educator Dr. Maria Montessori, is based on the idea that children have the ability to grow on their own, and places emphasis on children's spontaneous curiosity and desire to learn and try things.
We aim to provide children with an environment in which they can learn freely, and to foster their independence and talents by encouraging them to learn and take on challenges on their own.
Day 1 – 17:30~19:30
Cooking class with mom (Restaurant BistroW)
The theme is overcoming food likes and dislikes!
We collected questionnaires in advance about foods they disliked, and filled them with ideas on how to overcome them.
Parents and children will have fun cooking together. And of course, they will have a fun meal after cooking!
Lecturer: Tsutomu Abiko, Head Chef of Bistro W Restaurant at Hotel Wing International Tokyo Yotsuya
