The practical life exercises are a beginning point in the Montessori environment. They help the child in his whole development, physical, mental and moral. They form a part of the daily program of “activity” in the day of the child. The exercises are the foundation of classroom development as they aid the child:
- To grow in self knowledge
- To develop the child's concentration
- To develop fine and gross motor skills
- To help children towards independence
- To establish order
- To develop a good self-esteem
- To appreciate and understand the limits of his environment
- To develop a sense of responsibility
- To aid the child in his construction
- To appreciate culture
