Dr. Maria Montessori found that children three to six years old naturally direct their efforts to developing strength and precision of body and mind. She created exercises that focused on "Practical Life" such as washing, pouring, polishing, and folding, to give the children opportunities to focus themselves on worthwhile tasks while at the same time refining coordination, concentration, organization and independence.
