Toddler Cloth Washing Stand
This beautifully crafted Montessori washing stand is designed especially for toddlers to experience one of the most beloved Practical Life - Care of the Environment activities: cloth washing. It allows young children to scrub and rinse while developing coordination, concentration, and independence.
Children naturally love washing activities - the splashing water, the bubbles, and the satisfying rhythm of scrubbing. Maria Montessori described how she once started cloth washing using a washboard and plenty of foam in the basin to attract the children’s attention. This timeless activity still brings joy and calm focus to modern children as they take pride in meaningful, real-life work.
Made of durable solid beechwood, this washing stand is crafted from natural wood that combines strength, warmth, and timeless beauty. Furniture made from beechwood can last for generations, making it a lasting investment for any Montessori environment. The stand holds two basins for washing and rinsing, and its comfortable child-height design encourages natural movement and purposeful work.
Wooden Washboard is not included.
Please note: basin color may vary.
