Lovevery wooden egg cup Excellent Montessori Toy Explorer Play-kit months 9-10

Montessori Egg and cup for building concentration and coordination from The Explorer Playkit Months 9-10 The wood cup and egg will help your baby learn to use both sides of their body at the same time—a skill that’s important for things like getting dressed. They need lots and lots of practice using both hands at once to build the speed of communication between their brain’s two hemispheres. As simple as it is, the egg cup is physically fascinating to babies. Ideas for play: In the beginning, your baby will probably just enjoy banging the egg and cup together—this is also a way to use both sides of the body at once! See if they can dump the egg out of the cup at first— eventually they’ll work out how to put the egg in. Show your baby how to set the egg in the cup and then take it out again. Have your baby hold the egg in one hand, and the cup in the other, and encourage them to put the two parts together. Have them try to repeat your action—if they don’t, help guide their hands while standing or sitting behind them. Great condition, smoke free, pet free home Questions? Leave a comment below!
