Merry Land Montessori Play School And Kindergarten

Down on Moonnalam Road, specifically in Parass La, you will find our little spot. Merry Land Montessori Play School And Kindergarten is where the local kids from Adoor come to spend their mornings. It is often a bit chaotic, especially around 9:00 AM when everyone is arriving. We have toys scattered around and colorful mats on the floor because that is just how a play school looks. The walls have drawings pinned up that the children made themselves. It is not a silent place by any means. We spend our time teaching them how to share and how to recognize their letters. Being in Pathanamthitta, we get a lot of rain, so the kids spend a lot of time indoors during the monsoon months. We try to keep things organized, but with toddlers, plans change quickly. The kitchen area is where we get the snacks ready, and there is always someone needing help with a shoelace or a spilled drink. We don't use a lot of fancy technology here; it is mostly wooden blocks, books, and drawing paper. The staff here are mostly local women who have kids of their own. We understand that parents worry when they leave their little ones for the first time. We just try to make it a comfortable place for them to be while their parents are at work. It is a simple setup, but it works for the families in this neighborhood.
