Valentine's candy fun - estimation activity
Minnie enjoyed some Valentine’s Day learning fun this week! {She is currently 4 years old.} This is a SUPER simple, fun activity.
  1. Trace your child’s hand on a piece of paper
  2. Fill their hand with Valentine candy heartsFebruary 2012 416
  3. Have them guess how many hearts there are (a great math skill)
  4. If you have more than one child have them guess who will have more (i.e. did they grasp that older children have bigger hands therefore will fit more candy?)
  5. Count the candy (I had my Kindergartner put them in piles of 10 (you can count by 1s, 2s, 5s, or 10s depending on what skill you are practicing)February 2012 421
  6. Write the actual count at the bottom. How close where they?
