Buttons Math practice

Template from: childcareland.com
 If your child can sum, ask him/her to use two dice and work out the sum then place the corresponding amount of buttons on the snowman. If the child is too young for that, work on number recognition and counting with a numbered die instead.

Roll a snowman

The child rolls two dice and sums them up, then covers the corresponding number on the snowman.

The child picks an upper case magnetic letter and covers the corresponding lower case letter with a manipulative (beads, pom poms, small winter table decorations, etc.)

Foam clothes



Foam mittens

I cut out some foam mittens. My children hung them on the stairs.
Foam mittens can also be decorated. Ask the child to roll a die and decorate the mittens with the corresponding amount of, say, beads, plastic snowflakes, or anything else you might have at home.
