Last week’s activity of the week featured a pincer grip activity for transferring flower petals. This week’s activity of the week features a few pincer grip activities from Miss G’s Aussie Kindergarten.

The page with the pincer grip activities also contains an explanation of Montessori practical life activities as well as photos and descriptions of practical life activities and their extensions.

Practical life activities are very important for developing a child’s sense of order, concentration, coordination, and independence. The activities typically can be incorporated into homes or schools inexpensively and easily. For some great ideas, check out the practical life page from Miss G’s Aussie Kindergarten.
