Here is a sorting activity on C's Montessori shelf right now. I used Halloween themed erasers that I bought in the dollar bin at Wal-Mart and the tray came from this fabulous website. This was very simple for C, so next time I create a sorting activity it will be a little more involved.
She really enjoyed playing with the little erasers though and she had fun teaching baby how to complete the activity. Her world revolves around "baby" these days, so anything she can do that involves baby is wonderful and exciting in her book.
And here is a transfer activity using Halloween colored pom-poms and a tong. This activity works on fine motor skills (pre-cutting and pre-writing skills) as C has to transfer each pom-pom from the bowl to a circle on the paint pallet using the tongs.
And finally here is an ordering activity using various sized apples. C is learning to order items from smallest to biggest and vice versa. Everywhere we go we question C about the size of things, so I printed various sized apples and C set to work ordering them from smallest to biggest. She really enjoys doing this and I will continue to put this type of activity on her shelf until she really has mastery of it.
