Parents may prepare the activity with an egg carton as an alternate option. 

Follow the 3 simple steps below and parents are able to occupy children with this Montessori-inspired activity at home! 

The simple steps are:

1. Draw a different number of dots at the bottom of each compartment of the egg carton
2. Let your child count the number of dots 
3. Fill up the compartments with buttons, beads, cotton balls, etc. (any suitable items that can be found at home) according to the number of dots.

Practical life is one of the 5 core areas in the Montessori curriculum (extra points for you if you can name all 5 core areas). Children practice life skills from daily life activities such as spooning, pouring and other activities that require hand-eye coordination. 

These activities not only develop their motor skills, it also helps them to be able to concentrate and be more independent as they grow. 

To make these activities fun, why not start baking with your children at home today?
