A kitchen is a learning lab for children that can involve all of their senses. While kneading, tossing, pouring, smelling, cutting, and peeling foods, they have fun and learn without being aware of it. Preparing a meal, snack, or drinks for the family is a fun way for our child to learn to share.
Children who cook at home indicate a “sense of accomplishment,” self-confidence, and feeling of contributing to their families. Good job everyone.

Children love to share happiness when they make the craft on their own.
Cute tigers are roaring! Creative children are working on arts & crafts using different materials.
The art classes are inspiring and I always look forward to seeing the children’s finished work and their expression of it. The dragonfly gave children the imagination to hold it in their little hands and fly around the house. And the paper spinner is just entertaining to watch.

There is nothing better than training the kids from a young age to look after their clothes. Folding socks and clothes are a practical life activity for children that aims to develop concentration, coordination, independence and order. The folding socks activity also helps the child become independent by doing daily chores of life and instils a sense of confidence in them. “The first essential for the child’s development is concentration. The child who concentrates is immensely happy.” – Dr Maria Montessori.
In my experience with the needle as a child, I remember the focus I felt immediately, which encouraged me to stay in a task longer. The key to any success starts with concentration. Maria Montessori says: ” The life of the spirit prepares the dynamic power to daily life and on its side, daily life encourages thought by means of ordinary work.” -The child in the family, page 31
