My Project

While my young students are learning independence and feeding themselves, please help me supply some tools to help their efforts of gaining independence!

These suction plates will help keep their food safely contained and in place and help them use their utensils, while not worrying about the plates slipping and sliding.

The bibs will protect their clothing as they are learning feeding independence in our Montessori Classroom. Furthermore, the fruit cutting work will increase their Montessori skills by helping children gain independence, and will be a wonderful place to begin utilizing their fine motor skills, spatial awareness, as well as hand eye coordination to help them prepare for making their own snack and furthering their Montessori journey! Thank you in advance for your generosity in helping my students grow and thrive!
