Thanks for our mud kitchen!
One of our families has just donated a mud kitchen to us to say thank you for teaching their two children over the past few years. Mud kitchens provide support in social and emotional development with children as they negotiate turn taking, sharing, and patience as they wait their turn. Mud kitchens build imagination and encourage role playing as they mimic activities they see their parents do at home.
At BestStart Montessori Johnsonville children bake and prepare real food inside their classroom everyday, but they just love the opportunity to imagine with their friends as they experience the sensorial properties of sand and water.
We are so privileged to be given this activity for the children and know it will be enjoyed for many years to come!
