The Froebelian Approach
Friedrich Froebel (1782-1852), the creator of the kindergarten, celebrated the joy of learning through play, creative activity and nature. At Wild flowers, our talks and workshops explore how children can grow through curiosity, imagination, and connection with the natural world, helping adults create environments where wonder and exploration are nurtured.
The Montessori Approach
Maria Montessori (1870-1952) believed children flourish when given the freedom to follow their own curiosity. At Wild flowers, we share how fostering independence, purposeful activity and thoughtfully prepared environments can support each child's natural growth, offering guidance for parents, educators, and anyone who cares for children.
The Reggio Emilia Approach
The Reggio Emilia approach, developed in post-war Italy, values children as capable, curious and expressive individuals. In our talks and workshops, Wild flowers shows how to honour children's voices, encourage collaboration and create rich, engaging environments that inspire learning, creativity and connection.
