Is it witch o’clock yet? Because my kids are counting down the hours. I figured why not take this opportunity to play with time. Obviously I worked with E first on this, because A is like a tornado when it comes to the sensory bins.
For A (3yo) the focus is on one to one counting and pointing out each number as we count. For E (5yo) it is also on number recognition and an introduction to reading the time. But we all know how this actually ends… in sensory play!
Supplies & Instructions
