DIY Montessori-Inspired Activities for a 2 Year Old children

Note: I got most of these thoughts either from Pinterest, or from the publication Teach Me to Do It Myself: Montessori Activities for You and Your Child by Maja Pitamic (one of my all-time favourite Montessori publications, and one I highly recommend if you’re interested in Montessori-at-home). And bonus: all of these activities are very low cost, or free — they usually use things you already have at home. I don’t possess the funds to invest in Montessori materials that are elaborate, so I do my best with what I have. Developing the Perceptions

Threading Pony Beads onto Pipe Cleaners

Tip: for this task, to keep beads from falling off the end and twist it on, thread one bead onto the end of the pipe cleaner.

Lining Wooden Beads onto Embroidery Thread

Since thread is a lot trickier for threading than pipe cleaners, you’ll desire plastic embroidery needles for this action (I got mine from Hobby Lobby; you might also get them here). Tie a bead onto the other end to keep the beads from falling off.

Feely Bag Game

You desire a collection of familiar household objects, a basket, an opaque drawstring bag, and a modest towel. (Here, for the items, I’ve selected an apple, a plastic flower, a head of garlic, a pair of toddler scissors, a pinecone, Gumby, a sponge, and a spoon).

Cutting with Scissors

Yes, real scissors. No, she hasn't lost any fingers. (I bought her a pair of these Fiskars spring-action preschool scissors because I thought they would be simpler to use, but she actually prefers the standard kind.)

Button Snake

This notion comes from Happy Hooligans, and also you can get the details on how to make it there. An effective approach to practice buttoning!

Sewing on an Embroidery Hoop

I got this excellent idea from Filth Wizardy and Childhood 101.

Colour-Matching Wheel

I cut the circle out of a couple sheets of stiff paper glued together (file folders, in case you want to know), split it into 8 wedges, and then painted the wedges and clothespins to coincide.

Transferring with a Baster

It took a while for her to understand the importance of squeezing, dipping the tip into the water, and then lifting the point before squeezing into the following bowl.

Clothespins on a Clothesline

She loved this a lot more than I expected, and following the very first time I often found her taking this tray off her shelf and doing this task all by herself.

Transferring with a Dropper

Lydia needed to use the skills she learned with the baster (above) to master this task.
