Sharing is caring!
My toddler twins are starting to get an interest in puzzles and we have some preschool shape ones at home.
While they love doing these kinds of puzzles, I also want some preschool shape activities that are different to mix things up that are also engaging and hands-on for them.
My preschool shape activity also just focuses on one or two shapes at a time so they can see that circle objects can all look different and be different colors (cups, bowls, etc.) but they all make a circle. This will help them generalize shapes.
Since my 2-year-old twins have a huge interest in this shape toy, I wanted to do something else with shapes that would engage them and provide them with a rich learning experience.
This activity is super simple, yet so engaging. Plus, you can do this activity with objects you already have at home! That’s my kind of activity!
My toddler twins really enjoyed this preschool shape activity. They were learning so much while doing this toddler activity.
Even if they aren’t really matching the objects in the correct spots, that’s totally okay! The process of this activity is what is important.
They are still gaining a ton of valuable skills, which is the whole point of doing this or any activity with your child.
They are learning language skills, new vocabulary, getting an introduction to math, and being engaged while having FUN (the most important part).
I was also able to get dinner started while they engaged in this activity, so that was a bonus! And I was able to use items I already had a home.
I hope your toddler will enjoy this activity, too!
