When the electrician came around this week (tradesmen are like rock stars in our house!) & Lovely wanted to use a screwdriver to be like his new idol (he also changed into boardshorts because I think we got a surf-y electrician ;) I was inspired to create my version of
these screwdriver activity boards at
Montessori Services.

Saw up a piece of wood.
Add some screws...

And get going!
Looks like he is having a ball. Simple and sweet. I looked at the board on Montessori Services and it looks like you have saved yourself a packet. Well done!

Great idea! I'll make something like this for kids in my class. They LOVE this activity: http://leptir-mojpribor.blogspot.com/2009/08/konacno-prakticni-zivot.html , so I think they could love this one too.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! The black and white photos look cool, too!
ReplyDeletebeautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. I am going to do that right now for my little girl.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Your post got me to finally nag my husband enough to make us one too. ;) My son is going to be so excited to see it at lesson time tomorrow...thanks!
ReplyDeleteMy son has always loved a screwdriver too. It used to keep him busy for hours. Great for that hand-eye coordination and strengthening the fingers.
