My parents gave my kids pattern blocks for Christmas, and this week the blocks inspired us to make a couple of games using some butcher paper and the desk protector I wrote about in this post.
We started out with some very simple shape sorting:
I’m afraid my penmanship/drawing skills are pretty bad; thankfully two-year-olds are gentle critics.
Emma loved the sorting activity, so we made a shape matching board on the other side of the same sheet of paper:
I roll up the “boards” we make and secure them with rubber bands. They are stored in a cereal box so that Emma can easily choose the one she wants to play with.
