This basic shape activity will pave the way for kids to explore and create with shapes. The activity involves placing tiny objects like colored gems, buttons, pulses, stones or other small tokens along the edge of any circular object. Kids learn to recognize the shape and other attributes of it, like what the particular shape look like and how to make them.
Here we are introducing the basics of math and also fine motor and coordination skills, as kids are picking up and placing the bean onto the board using the pincer grasp action.
You will need a circular object and any beans. You can use plates or container lids or even a paper with a circle on it or a circular board like the one we used.
LO was playing with brown beans and vehicles. The floor was messy with the beans everywhere. To make him clean up the mess I encouraged him to do this activity and it worked out!😜 All the beans went into the dump truck to ease the activity!
I showed him to how to make circle with beans and he fairly did a decent job!
LO wanted to try the same with the shapes beads!
Happy Parenting 😊
