Winter Morning Work

Sn*wflakes and more!
I give them a choice about what color they can use,




Read more about the punches here.









Funky Scissors to make a cutting collage







Fine motor snowflake beads-
just stringing them on a pipe cleaner
You could have them make patterns,
you could add a dice and have them 
add that many beads 
to the pipe cleaner.

I got them from Oriental Trading,
here is the post they made
using them, but they are out of stock.

Winter Centers

Winter Centers

sn*w and ice magnatiles- not a big hit at all this year, no one used them!
I swapped it out with something in week two.
I think they were from Target.


Play-Doh with cookie cutters and mats.
Here are some play-dough mats $ for them to use:

Wooden houses and a truck from Target.


stuffies- mostly from Dollar Tree
We are using these as reading buddies :)


Cubes for a light table.
The box is from Dollar Tree and they are sn*wflakes.


plain white felt sn*wmen at the bottom
decorated sn*wmen 
sn*wmen ornaments from Target.


Paper punches, white crayons, and colored pencils- 
not a big hit either, swapped it out week 2.


Ten frames with sn*wflakes from a past KinderCrate.
I added felt numbers to match.


sn*wmen have magnets on the back for our magnet center.
Number guide from Tara West.
These were our snowmen math magnet game.$



In the white bin
I drew the faces on the cups.
The snowballs were from Target, I think.
The cups just sit in a bin, and the kids toss yarn  pom-poms
into them and call out the number they sank the pom-pom.

Besides our fine motor table, I added these trays.
These are super small trays.
I have a bag for each number.
Yellow tray- random cards- I have zero idea where they came from.
Blue tray- Number Blocks cards from a set. 
Number cards from some people I bought this summer.
(Blog post upcoming)
Red Tray~ textured cards from Target and sandpaper cards from FB Marketplace.
Pink Tray~ From Hands2Mind
