MONTESSORI / DEXTERITY ACTIVITIES FOR LITTLE ONES (using marble rocks & popsicle sticks)

~Homeschool Weekly Wrap Up for my 3 & 1 year old~

I purchased these marble type rocks for the Dollar Tree (which I have to tell you I have gotten ALOT of great materials from the Dollar Tree lately to incorporate with our learning). I decided we could use them several different ways, here is what I came up with using them & popsicle sticks!

I laid out 5 popsicle sticks, had him put in order 1-5 (1 on the 1st stick & so on)

Then he wanted to rest the popsicle sticks till each one was full

My 1 year old liked putting these marble rocks in a plastic container

 Then trying to scoop them out using a popsicle stick
My preschooler balanced the rocks on the wide popsicle stick
Come back to see what other dexerity activities I came up for my little ones!

We link up weekly at the following awesome homeschool blogs!
