Montessori Activities for Kids

Have you been thinking of simple Montessori Activities to practice at home with your young child? Well, keep reading!


Practical life skills: Encourage your child to help with household chores, such as setting the table, folding laundry, and watering plants. These tasks promote independence, coordination, and problem-solving skills.


Sensory Exploration: Provide opportunities for your child to explore the world through their senses. For example, you could set up a sensory bin filled with materials of different textures and let your child dig, pour, and discover.



Fine Motor Skills: Offer activities that strengthen fine motor skills, such as using tongs to pick up small objects, threading beads, and using tweezers to transfer items from one bowl to another.

Language Developmen
t: Encourage language development through activities such as reading books, singing songs, and playing word games.


Math and Science: Introduce your child to basic math and science concepts through hands-on activities, such as sorting and counting objects, measuring ingredients while cooking, and observing the natural world.


Art and Creativity: Encourage creativity through art activities such as drawing, painting, and building with blocks.





Take Away

It's important to remember that in Montessori, the focus is on the process of learning rather than the end result, so encourage your child to work at their own pace and follow their interests.
