These types of activities give a child a sense of belonging and the satisfaction of being productive citizens in their community. What wonderful help in maintaining our classroom by washing place-mats!

In our Under 3 Montessori classroom, the children are shown easy ways to dress and undress themselves. They learn how to put their jackets on by flipping them over their heads; practice putting their boots on by placing each boot against the nearest wall to aid their balance; work on pulling their snow pants up; and putting their hats and mittens on. Help children to help themselves!

The classroom is a small community for the children, and everyone works together to promote order and peace. One element of the Practical Life activities includes care of the environment. Here, the child is shown how to care for different parts of the classroom.

What a beautiful flower arrangement!
