About this series:
Montessori Magic: Stories and Early Art is a heartwarming early childhood series that combines the magic of play with the wonder of storytelling. In partnership with My Painted House and its founder, celebrated educator and artist Jaime Castellanos, this program is designed to engage young minds in a holistic exploration of creativity and literacy.
Each session begins with a captivating story or poem, sparking children’s imaginations and laying the foundation for artistic inspiration. Guided by Jaime, little learners will then bring those stories to life through hands-on art activities tailored to their developmental stages. From painting scenes to crafting characters, participants will explore color, texture, and design while building fine motor skills, vocabulary, and comprehension.
The program celebrates the connection between art and storytelling, helping children develop their self-expression, communication skills, and a lifelong love for creativity and books. Families will cherish the keepsakes their children create and the stories they tell, making every session a memorable step in their learning journey.
