Montessori Mom

A fun Montessori song, premiered at Oak Meadow Montessori School, Littleton, MA. Lyric by songwriter Mary Haller.

Montessori Mom
(sung to the tune of Cold Beer and a Fishin Pole)

V1
I brought my kids to school when they were three
Figured theyd just play and learn their ABCs
But they did more than cut n paste and glue
They had a choice, they found their voice
And they taught me a thing or two

Chorus
Now Im a Montessori mom
When I get home I put my slippers on
My kids have given me my own jobs, I aint no slob
I hardly ever watch TV
When I get home I hang up my coat
If I get mad I get a peace rose
Theyre teachin me how to knit and sew, and iron my clothes
And fold em nice and neat

V2
My youngest child can use a knife and fork
And this week my oldest wrote twelve book reports
The other day they both took me aside
Said theyre moving up to harder stuff
But that I could stay in Practical Life

Chorus
So Im a Montessori mometc

Bridge
Soon Ill be ready for bead chains
Red rods and bank games
But first Ill polish and scrub the floor, a little more
At my own pace

Chorus
Yeah, Im a Montessori mom
When I get home I put my slippers on
My kids have given me my own jobs, I aint no slob
I hardly ever watch TV
When I get home I hang up my coat
If I get mad I get a peace rose
Theyre teachin me how to knit and sew, and iron my clothes
And fold em nice and neat
Theyre teachin me how to knit and sew, and iron my clothes
And fold em nice and neat
