Recognizing Shapes and Sizes
As we all know that stencils come in all shapes and sizes, they help in making the child understand the different shapes and alphabets. They get to learn what is a rectangle, oval, or circle and the difference between the shapes. While teaching them any language, this aids the process of making them realize the shape of various letters and how will they be able to write it. Because using a stencil seems like a fun activity to children, this helps in enhancing their motivation for learning to write or draw something.
Learning How-to-Call things
Kids can learn the name of animals, clothes etc. with the help of Stencils Templates.
Storytelling
Storytelling is a great skill to teach to kids. It helps improve their language skills, instills a love of reading and stirs their imagination.
The Ability to Follow Guidelines
Apart from the basic learning, using stencils helps your children to discipline themselves. They would know that they need to follow specific guidelines for everything that they do. This thing gets incorporated into their personality which benefits other aspects of their lives as well.
Developing Better Motor Skills
The motor skills of the toddler will be refined which will result in learning how to write and draw. This will be an excellent training for the future when the child will no longer use any of the stencils for writing or drawing. He would know how to handle the pencil or how to draw certain lines to make specific shapes. Stencils make the learning faster and sharper for any toddler and also tend to reduce the workload of the teacher.
To sum up
We believe you will agree that Stencils are definitely one of the most valuable tools which can be used in a Montessori which guarantee an enhanced learning of any toddler.
