Both my sister,myself, my niece and my SIL went to Montessori. They are fantastic preparation for school and everyday life. They don't just work on a few principles but work on all 5 sences of a child. Alot of the activities therefore are structured around developing all kinds of different skills. Fine motor skills are really focused on. When I left at 5 I could read and write and I was dyslexic. If they have a follow on primary school I would not put my child into this as it isn't as structured as normal school. The child chooses the activity they are going to do - rahter than the teacher directing them into something.
I would love to put my DS into one and would do it tomorrow however the closest one to us is over an hours drive =(
I would highly reccomend them. If you would like any more info please feel free to PM me.
