I Did It! Brushing My
Teeth!
The “Montessori Life Picture Books” series is popular among Montessori
educators and parents for its realistic illustrations and faithful depiction of
the concepts of Montessori education.
This book, the third in the series, focuses on brushing teeth, a particular
concern of many parents. Montessori education emphasizes the
importance of children brushing their teeth by themselves.
In the book, a boy tries brushing his teeth by himself. Through his eyes,
children learn when to brush their teeth, how to brush, how to gargle
afterward, and so on. Although parents help by checking the results and
finishing up the brushing process, the experience of brushing their teeth
by themselves should encourage children to brush spontaneously.
The end of the book includes tips on how to deal with children who do
not want to brush their teeth, routines to get children to say, “I want to
brush my teeth!”, and suggestions for creating an environment where
children will want to brush their teeth.
This is a book sure to help children develop the habit of brushing their
teeth in a fun way.
