The Early 3’s worked hard on counting and sorting items this week. They had fun using tweezers to pick up small items and sort them into their correct bins. They also counted and sorted eggs using their fingers.
Our name activity for March has been building flowers using our names! Each child has to find their name and take it to the boy or girl flower and when all of the names are on the board we count how many boys and girls are at school. The children love to try to figure out who is not at school and if we have more boys or more girls.
To play Alphabet Cover-Up write letters on the spaces of the board. Show your preschooler a flashcard of a letter on the board. Use anything around the house to cover up the spaces. Then play by calling out the letter. You can also play by saying the sound the letter makes. Use the board for many different games from the suggested activities list. Remember not to overwhelm your child with more letters or numbers than they are ready for! Add some more fun and practice by asking your child to cover up a letter with a certain color or with a number of marbles, etc.
