“A child’s self-esteem and confidence can develop when they are able to complete a task independently.
By fostering children’s daily life skills—such as caring for themselves and their environment—we can cultivate their sense of responsibility.”
— Maria Montessori
The content of Practical Life Education includes: basic movement exercises, graceful social etiquette, self-care, care for the environment, food preparation, and coordination and control of movement. What aspects of a child’s development can these activities support?
They help children acquire essential life skills, nurture their ability to take care of themselves and their independence, and engage in sustained activities. This, in turn, cultivates young children’s concentration and a sense of order, while also preparing them for learning in areas such as sensory education, mathematics, language, and cultural sciences.
