The “Montessori Life Picture Books” series is popular among Montessori educators and parents for its realistic illustrations and faithful depiction of the concepts of Montessori education.

This book, the third in the series, focuses on brushing teeth, a particular concern of many parents. Montessori education emphasizes the importance of children brushing their teeth by themselves.

In the book, a boy tries brushing his teeth by himself. Through his eyes, children learn when to brush their teeth, how to brush, how to gargle afterward, and so on. Although parents help by checking the results and finishing up the brushing process, the experience of brushing their teeth by themselves should encourage children to brush spontaneously.

The end of the book includes tips on how to deal with children who do not want to brush their teeth, routines to get children to say, “I want to brush my teeth!”, and suggestions for creating an environment where children will want to brush their teeth.

This is a book sure to help children develop the habit of brushing their teeth in a fun way.
