Education > Godly Play
The educational theory of Godly Play is rooted in the use of ritual, story, and the creative process. Montessori's approach to education has been adapted to Godly Play to stimulate children's active participation in story and ritual and to awaken their creativity. That way, they are able to learn the language, sacred stories, parables, liturgical action and silence of the Christian tradition.
This combination of factors enables children (and adults) to become playfully orthodox. They become rooted in their own tradition and, at the same time, open to others, to new ideas and the future in creative ways.
