When your lesson plan becomes a game of charades

I love how in Montessori, every teaching moment can turn into an unexpected adventure. Just the other day, I was explaining how to water plants, and my toddler decided it was time to create a water fight instead. I guess they really took ‘hands-on learning’ to heart! I’m curious if others have had moments where the lesson plan completely derailed into something hilarious. What’s your funny Montessori mishap?
