We are introducing CURVES...

Zoey started her day

Leo started his day with STAR

color sorting game....

Harrison started with

STAR ROLL AND COVER

Roll the die and cover the number 

you rolled until you whole

Star is covered

Zoey played

Roll and Cover next....

Another new game is

Follow the Star...

This game is for up to 3 friends

Children take turns rolling the die and

then moving their "WISEMAN"

the number they rolled.

They continue until they make it to Little Boy

Jesus.

This game is such a fun way to teach working together,

taking turns, problem solving, counting and

number recognition

scented with treasures inside.

very colorful and children can use their

imagination to use how they want...
