This was so easy and both Smartypants and Sweetheart loved this new game. I found balloon borders at the Dollar Tree. Each border has 8 balloons. For both I wrote letters in each balloon. They take a clothepin and match the letter. The clothepin has a letter to match. Using a clothepin is for their fine motor. For Smartpants I wrote "at" and "og" words on the balloon and clothpin. Smartypants matches the word as well as says the word. Sweetheart I did numbers up to 16. The first 8 she had no problem. The second 8 she did great as well. Just have to have her say the number as she puts the clothespins.
I plan to do this activity again in the fall. Plus, have Sweetheart count out objects of each numbers.
