"This is one option to teach rolling. When we are teaching Montessori one of the very first things that we teach the children is how to roll a mat or a rug. And this one is a bamboo mat. It's much easier for the children to control. So I'm going to show you how to teach them the very first steps of rolling a mat. Rolling a mat. Use tiny fingers.
