Although traditional Montessori sensorial work tends to isolate just ONE SENSE (for example when you use a blindfold to isolate the TACTILE SENSE), COMBINING the sense of touch with other senses such as visual, has been proven to help build cognitive skills. You can start introducing Animals Skin Matching Cards to a child around 18 months. (READ DETAILS ABOUT WHEN TO PRESENT Montessori Nomenclature 3-Part Cards HERE.) This lesson can also be presented as a part of Montessori Cultural and Science work.
STAGE 1: [AGE 12 M +] The easiest matching is IDENTICAL PICTURE to PICTURE matching ~ you can do it with images of animals or images of coats (you would need to print two copies of an image ~ you are NOT matching skin to an animal).
STAGE 2: [AGE 18 M+] Matching animal COAT-SKIN to an ANIMAL PICTURE (this is a little more abstract since a child is matching part to whole)
STAGE 3: [AGE 18 M+]*If you have animal figurines you can invite a child to match animal toys to their respective pictures or coats while clearly saying the name of the animal.
