Description
The shallow round bowl is a basic product required for the practical life range. A beautiful ceramic bowl, white in colour, highlights the importance of working with “real” products, ensuring the Child’s focus, patterns and brilliant colours tend to distract the Child’s attention.
Break the shallow round bowl is just that, a breakable item that must be used with careful handling. The Child may be unlucky, having an accident which causes a breakage, this will only happen once. As the adult looking on, you know that this accident will present the perfect teaching opportunity, to explain:
- why we handle fragile items carefully
- how working without distraction will prevent these type of errors.
- that breakages can cause an injury
- how to clean up broken glass or dishes (under supervision only)
