According to the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, cognitive, emotional, and social capacities are all inextricably intertwined throughout the course of life. The brain is a highly unified piece of machinery with functions that operate in coordination with one another. Thus, your children’s emotional well-being and social capabilities provide them with a strong foundation for emerging mental abilities, together working as the bricks and mortar of brain architecture.

Toxic stress can weaken the architecture of the developing brain of a child, which can eventually lead to lifelong problems in learning and behavior as well as their physical, and mental health.

As a Montessori school in Manassas Park, Virginia, we at Maple Lawn Montessori of Manassas Park understand just how challenging life can get, especially with what’s happening today.

Help ease your child’s stress and worries with the following techniques:

Stop swamping their schedule. Give your children a little downtime to play and have fun.
Make sleep a priority for them. This will help in boosting their mood and minimizing stress.

Manage your own stress. Children absorb the energy that they feel around them.

Our Montessori preschool in Virginia yields plenty of benefits for the development and advancement of your child’s talents and skills.
