Future of Motherhood

At a Montessori school, the children are free to pursue activities that interest them. Children have an inner need, a drive to learn what they want to learn.

We silly adults try to impose upon them what we think they need to know, but I fully believe the kids will learn all they need to with minimal interference.

Sagan was concentrating very hard. Trying to stuff the play microwave with all the babies. She'd stuff them in and try to close the door. The door would open and the babies would vomit out. She spent 10 full minutes on this work, before realizing and accepting that only 4 babies would fit in the microwave at one time. Not 6, not 5, just 4.

What do you think? Six minutes on medium?

not unless they need thawed. 2 minutes on high usually works for me. (homer voice) "mmmmmm... microwaved babies...."

I usually use the oven, you can get 8 or 7 in there easily.
