Are Sensory Felt Busy Boards Montessori?
Busy boards, also called sensory boards or activity boards, are not originally from Montessori education, but they can reflect certain Montessori principles depending on their design and usage.
Montessori education emphasizes hands-on learning and the use of appropriate materials. Busy boards, with their variety of sensory activities and manipulative elements like buttons, switches, zippers, and latches, can support aspects of Montessori education, such as:
Sensory exploration: Busy boards let children engage their senses by touching, seeing, and manipulating different textures and shapes.
Fine motor skills: Many activities on busy boards require fine motor skills, like grasping and twisting, which help develop coordination.
Problem-solving: Some busy board activities involve figuring out how to open locks or complete puzzles, encouraging children to use their problem-solving skills.
Independent exploration: Children can interact with busy boards independently, choosing activities based on their interests and pace, promoting autonomy.
