_ Practical Life Skills consists of any physical activity that helps a child grow and refine motor skills, cognitive development, self confidence and development of his or her own personality, and most importantly independence. Any controlled movement of hands, arms, legs, feet, eyes, etc. helps your child achieve independence and mastery of his or her environment. The good practice that children establish at an early age, through regular repetition, pave the way for the development of maturity and self-discipline later.

_ In a Montessori classroom children develop their ability to look after themselves and their surroundings. We use scaled down version of real equipments such as brushes and brooms, wash-up bowls and cloths, show cleaning and polishing kits. There are also opportunities for pairing socks, hanging, folding and sorting clothes as well as plaiting and sewing.

__The purpose of Practical Life exercises are that children who work on real tasks which involve the hand, eye and the mind together may develop a greater capacity to concentrate, which is the best possible preparation for the intellectual work to come.
