Popcorn pouring.

I've had a list of Montessori activities to do with Mateo for a long time, but until recently he's proven to be a bit too young and uncoordinated. So today I broke out the popcorn pouring.

These were our materials: a cookie sheet over which to pour (I learned this the hard way), two pouring cups that are transparent enough through which to view the pouring action, various sizes of measuring spoons, and an egg separator to see what happens when there's a hole in the spoon.

He quite enjoyed it, though he kept asking to eat it.
