Zoolander Montessori?

Sitting at my desk a moment ago, I was tapped on the shoulder by Little Huck, who created this get up for himself.
 


 No, he has never seen Zoolander, but that was my immediate thought.
 

Ahh - the value of Free Expressive Play - Montessori Style

I am especially concerned about the following Montessori quote:

"children, especially under the age of six, have an innate path of psychological development. Based on her observations, Montessori believed that children at liberty to choose and act freely within an environment prepared according to her model would act spontaneously for optimal development."

Really?!?  Hoo-kay...

Ciao!
