Hello everyone!
With the arrival of spring, you are for sure thinking about that more intense cleaning around the house, right? … Moms, if you will take out all the dishes and utensils from the drawers to clean, I propose a game that I called “fit the shape” and that will keep the kids busy until you do your job.
The good part of this game is that kids love it so much and it stimulates their gray cells :D. On top of all you don’t have to buy anything, but only use what you already have at home.
The bad part is that either you want or you don’t want, then you have to wash all those utensils you used. And there should be a lot to make the game as stimulating as possible for their minds.
NECESSARY
- PAPER – it can even be paper that has already been used on both sides, then draw the outline of the shape with the marker.
- UTENSILS – maaaany
- MARKER – to draw the outline of shapes on a sheet of paper
- ADHESIVE TAPE – to fix the sheets of paper between them, but also on the floor
HOW TO PROCEED
Put all the utensils for the game on a tray or in a basket. The important thing is they will be together so that the children know exactly what the utensils for the game are.
The sheets of paper should be glued together so that you get a large enough surface to include all the contours of the shapes of the utensils you want to use.
The next step is to place the utensils, one by one, on the sheet of paper and draw their outline on it with the help of a marker, preferably.
Gather the children around the sheet of paper you have fixed on the floor / table. Then explain that they have to match the shape of the utensils on the sheet of paper.
Have fun!
Here’s how it went with us!
With joy,
Oana and the happy dwarfs
