What is the Thermic Sense? | Montessori Points of Interest

Описание: Welcome to "Montessori Points of Interest" with CGMS and Heather White!

What is the thermic sense, and why does it matter in a child’s development? In this episode, we explore how the thermic sense, our ability to perceive temperature, plays a vital role in helping children refine their awareness of the physical world.

Through sensorial experiences like handling metal insets, wooden objects, and fabric swatches of varying temperatures, Montessori education invites children to distinguish warm from cool and smooth from textured and to build a deeper connection with their environment. These activities nurture careful observation, mindfulness, and an appreciation for subtle differences that sharpen both the mind and the senses.
