I Can Take Care of Plants

"Never help a child with a task at which he thinks he can succeed."
-Maria Montessori

Early childhood focuses often on "Learning through PLAY".
Kids learn through it is one of the best strategies in moulding them.
They have fun at the same time they are unaware that it is already what you call "Class Lesson".

In this activity, the teacher's lesson is on the Plant's Needs and on How to Take Care of it.
The teacher asked the parents to bring one plant with a name of their child on it.
They will have to take care of their plants.
They will water it, and weed it out.
From that the kids will learn to be responsible enough to take care of their plants.
They are unaware that the teacher had helped them developed their sense of responsibility.

At the same time, they can tell already what their plants need.
Not through teacher's lecture but as their realization in their everyday task.
