After a lifetime of interest in early childhood development... Baby Burrows is born!  As you build your own burrows for your family and children, consider this site as a tool to support you!  You will find the latest articles, research and creative ideas relating to early childhood development on the Resource and Facebook page.  The Association Montessori International passed a torch of knowledge to Baby Burrows that we will continue to share for the benefit of parents, child care providers and our children!  We are here to support you as you take a step back and observe your child as they navigate and explore our beautiful and complicated world.  It is through the child's view that our young generations take a hold of our future.

When the child begins to move, his mind, being able to absorb, has already taken in his surroundings. Before he starts moving at all, an unconscious psychological development has taken place in him, and when he initiates his first movements, this begins to become conscious.
