In our Under 3 Montessori classroom, we encourage the children to explore various aspects of science to encourage a sense of wonder and appreciation of the world around us. We conducted a science experiment involving baking soda, vinegar, and food colouring. As the ingredients mixed and reacted, the children watched in joy and astonishment as the colourful baking soda began to bubble and expand.

A child’s desire for creative exploration and expression is fostered through a variety of mediums and tools. Playdough, paint, markers, crayons, pencils, glue, chalk, scissors and paper are always available. As children explore these mediums, they develop hand-eye coordination, co-ordinating two hands together, concentration, sequencing, and precision through molding, cutting, gluing, painting, and mark-making, all while having fun!
