during a recent trip to my fave store, the doLLaR trEE, we found a little plastic backpack full of monkeyhead erasers. we picked them up because i thought that they would make excellent math manipulatives.
Bear wanted to play with them the other day. i wanted to see what he was going to do with them, so i just gave them to him. then i sat down and watched. he started counting them one by one and then putting them in a line.
$1 well spent. wouldn't you agree?
so precious!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so cool to watch your kids turn an everyday object into something they can learn from?! My daughter does this with cheerios and I love it!
