Snack Game

Today we played the make it yourself snack game. All you need is a die, 6 different snacks and a container for the kids to collect their winnings!

We used Chinese take out boxes to mix our snack

Our six snacks

We made a die and stuck stickers on it -
Bailey is counting what she got

Gregory doing the same

Match your number with the corresponding snack
and count out the number of snacks into your container

"Is it a one?" (skittles)

The kids had such a fun time with this! They want to play it again tomorrow. Any good ideas for small snacks? Today we used skittles, raisins, dried cranberries, mini teddy grahams, cheerios, and kettle corn. Maybe tomorrow we'll made a fruit salad!

Hey, what a fun idea! Did you make that up yourself? Great motivator to get kids counting!
