Bear loves practical life.
Mopping:
We love our mop and bucket from Montessori Services.
This pitcher is so beautiful.
Peeling an egg.
Then slicing it.
Some toddler works:
This is actually a transfer exercise but J-jo turned it into an open and close one after finishing the transfer.
Putting the work away. He is quite good at picking up after himself (in the Montessori area of our house).
Pouring. It's still not going so well.
Matching. He loves to do this one. As soon as I get more card stock I'll be printing Lori's cards for him.
When it gets really quiet, I can usually find him looking at books. He can sit like this alone for up to 15 to 20 minutes, but if I come sit next to him, he will leave.
The beauty of having two:
Working on our Chinese New Year dragon.
Looking at books. It's even more wonderful now that Bear can read him many of the books.

I love that mop too. After awhile it doesn't look so pretty.
It's sweet that Bear can help and teach Jo-Jo. He will definitely learn a lot from his big sister. Other people' children grow so fast :)
So sweet seeing them working together. Makes me want another one : )
This is such a beautiful post. I love the photos showing wonderful daily activities, showing that learning does not have to be too complicated.
Isn't it wonderful? I love it when JR teaches and helps Asher. Bear looks like she loves helping her baby brother. Thanks for the link. I hope you like the cards. :)

I love the picture matching game. You look like you were having a lot of fun.
What a great week! I love the peaceful atmosphere in your home - and the fact that you have a little mopping assistant! Where did you get that gorgeous pitcher set?!
