Arrow Match

Materials

  • Paper (Can be white or colorful paper, your choice!)
  • Black marker
  • Lids to jars (sauce, jam, nut butters etc.)

How To

  • Depending on your child’s interest, start with three to four lids.
  • Trace the lid onto the paper.
  • Draw arrows on the lids in various directions—Up, down, left, right.
  • Now draw arrows on the circles you traced on the paper for the child to match the lids to.
  • Make as many pieces of paper with patterns as your child is interested in.
  • Have fun with it! If they are really into the idea, you can collect small water bottle caps to make more complex patterns.
