🌈At Maharishi Preschool we are cultivating with 🌈At Maharishi Preschool we are cultivating within each child a sense of independence and capability. 
🌈When the children enter into the gates of our playground carrying their lunch and wearing their backpack, a sense of responsibility, independence, and capability is enlivened in them.
🌈They know where to put their belongings and they know where they are when they need them or when it is time to go home. 
🌈During their time at school, they make many choices and their sense of capability grows each day. 
🌈They are following their internal drive to master skills, grow, and learn, and by allowing them to be responsible for their own belongings, these qualities will continue to be reinforced.
🌈The sense of pride when children feel responsible in these small but significant ways is such a beautiful thing to witness!
