2. Using colored fish manipulatives or goldfish crackers, have your child create patterns. AB pattern- yellow, red, yellow, red... or ABBA green, yellow, yellow, green. Our crafts N things used dappers to create fish patterns- awesome idea!
3. At education.com, I found the article Preschool Math: Exploring Patterns. Many wonderful ideas! One of my favorite is Movement Patterns- jump, skip, jump, skip..... What a fun way to get moving and teach patterns at the same time!
4. Make a colored pasta or cereal(fruit loops) pattern necklace.
5. This pattern snake activity caught my eye on Pinterest! (mess for less)
Happy Patterning with your little one!
