The object of this activity is to sort the insects & animals by color into the four separate compartments. I was trying to get O interested in sorting with tongs with this activity, but it didn't really work. She tried the tongs at first, but then she said she'd rather do it by hand. The tray is from Dollar General and the animals were an after Halloween deal that I found at either Target or Wal-mart.
are the tongs children's chopsticks? If so, do you think they work well as tongs? I've been contemplating buying some...also, love the Spring colors of the creepy crawlies :)
ReplyDeleteCool insects/animals!
ReplyDeleteYeah tongs can be tricky, and kids are fickle! :)
Yes, they are children's chopsticks. I let her choose which ones she wanted to use, and she chose the chopsticks over actual tongs. They aren't easy for her (neither are the tongs), and she'd just rather not use them :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh--I just bought some trays, etc. at Dollar General (I bought the lime green) and saw the exact ones you have pictured!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know that it is very difficult to read your blog as the black background is very dark. you may want to consider changing your theme colors.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever thought of having a button for people to put on their sidebars? I'd put yours up!
