Supplies I used:
foam clovers green paper clips. white cardstock glue pencil eraser green stamp pad marker
Instruction:
1. Prepare cardstock paper
I cut three 8 1/2″ x 11″ sheets of white cardstock paper into four sections.
2. Glue on shamrock
Glue foam shamrock on each white cardstock piece.
I encouraged my daughter to recognize each number as she came to it, and if she couldn’t to count the dots as she added the paper clips to them. She had a little bit of a struggle with the first couple of paper clips but once I showed her how to put them on she did great adding them on. 3. We also practiced our cutting skills with this all things green St. Patrick’s Day Cutting Tray. This goes without saying how much great fine motor practice this was! Little ones might have a hard time with the paper clips and you can always do mini clothespins instead.
Supplies I used:
shamrock necklaces green garland green straws green felt strips with glitter shamrock stickers on them. scissors tray
Lay out all the supplies on the tray so your child can see everything they’ll be working with. Encourage your child to cut every item in the tray! This helps them develop their fine motor skills and improve cutting precision. The necklaces and the felt pieces were my daughters favorite to cut. We had a bit of a hard time with the small garland so I wouldn’t recommend it. I am loving the learning and practice that all these learning trays are giving my daughter.
