Water Sponge Transfer. This Montessori toddler activity is really simple and informative! I classify this activity under “math/science.”  It teaches a bit of practical life, eye/hand coordination, and of course squeezing.

Supplies: 

• 2 bowls or Tupperware containers
• water
• Tray
• sponge

Directions: 

• Set up water in one of the containers, and put both bowls on a tray.
• Demonstrate once.
• Let em’ explore!

McKinley had a blast with this activity! Next time I’ll probably add some food coloring to the water and maybe some extra containers that are different sizes! Have fun! Oh..and here is a video:
