Practical Life Curriculum

Practical life activities help children develop in a number of important ways.

Children at Golden Grove are given lessons in a range of practical life skills including:

• sewing
• cooking
• cleaning
• social etiquette

The classroom addresses the child’s need for increasing independence, motor skills and confidence. Practical life activities help children in lengthening attention span, increasing academic success, developing a sense of responsibility, increasing their ability to make judgments and decisions, and helping them to function and interact appropriately in society.
