Nuts and Bolts
We have all had difficulty screwing a nut onto a bolt. Unless you get the perfect start, the nut will come to a stop after a few turns, and we have to start again. Screwing a nut onto a bolt takes practice, patience, and accuracy. Screwing a nut onto a bolt for adults is second nature, but this is a learned skill for children. The nut and bolt are usually made of metal and are big and chunky for kids to easily use.
Montessori elementary Screwing a Nut onto a Bolt teaches children how to screw a nut onto a bolt well.
