I really love getting ideas from Montessori, however right now neither Pookie nor myself are interested in doing things quite as specifically as true montessori activities are. We just get inspiration from the activities, practical life etc and make them our own.
I got Pooks these really ceramic dishes from Ikea for her kitchen. One of the things it comes with is a tiny pouring jug which immediately made me think of Montessori. So one night when I was attempting unsuccessfully to cook dinner, I came up with this activity. I showed her how to do it and she really enjoyed it. Basically she put the jug in the blue bowl and used it to fill all the cups, and once she did that she poured the water back into the blue bowl. We will definitely have to do this one again!
