A little plan for play
Open interactive activity →Add to play journal →What you need
A full sheet of paper and a large child-appropriate crayon.
Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.
Let's make it happen
- Draw a snowperson with a large round body and a smaller head.
- Choose a number together and draw that many button marks down the body.
- Point to each mark while counting. Add a scarf or another snowperson and compare their buttons.
Adult stays beside the child; all buttons are drawn marks rather than loose pieces.
