Teaching Shapes to Toddlers - 1

Tot School Shape Activity #1

Most of these kids know their shapes so why not reinforce it with 2 weeks of focus just to make sure! :)

I had Square, Rectangle, Oval, Circle and Diamond and Triangle.

Here is the first thing we did.

Rectangle Robots!

I cut out several different sizes and types of Rectangles.  Then I glued the body on a paper and let them decide how their robot would look.

It was interesting to watch each kid decide on each individual piece.
 They all really liked this project.


 My favorite thing about art projects is no matter what it is - using the same supplies - everyone comes up with something totally different.
Each kid got to pick an eye or two from the eye box and then I added a smile and a tag of what it was and the date.  They look adorable!
