- Button sorting
- With a bunch of colorful buttons of different sizes, put them in a sensory bin (bin filled with uncooked rice, beans, oatmeal, sand, etc) for the preschoolers to play with and find. Use tweezers to pick them out!
- After they have been sorted by color, sort by size.
- Stinging buttons
- With the same buttons used above and a pipe cleaner, string the buttons! They can string them:
- randomly
- patterns
- by color
- by size
- etc.
- Make a button tree
- Gather your supplies. We used:
- empty toilet paper roll (filled with newsprint) and a base of cardboard glued to the bottom
- sticks from outside
- hot glue gun and extra glue
- BUTTONS!
- Arrange the sticks and add dots of glue to the branches, applying a button to each one before it dries.
- Another option is to glue the branches to a piece of paper so it is flat instead of 3D.
