This is an entertainment center to keep the kids busy while I work with one, but it sneaks in some math skills without anyone realizing they're doing it. Materials needed: Dollar Tree glowing stars, Dollar Tree cookie sheets.
How To:
1. Place stars on cookie tray IN ONE LAYER on the bathroom counter.
2. Turn on the lights on in the bathroom to "charge them up."
3. Place a mat on the floor.
4. Show the child how to remove the trays from the counter to the floor, close the door, and turns off the lights.
5. Show him how to sort the stars according to size or color.
6. Show him then how to finish the activity: turn on the lights, return the stars to the trays, places them on the counter, and open the door.
