Independence
From learning to complete classroom tasks on their own, to understanding the importance of responsibilities and making decisions, helping children to develop a sense of independence is essential preparation for adulthood.
Featuring shopping and markets as a backdrop, the below activity and featured life skills lesson from Tiger Time use role play to simulate making independent choices outside of the classroom.
