The girls spent a good amount of time creating shape pictures over the weekend, and have continued to return to this activity all week. There were many discoveries made, including Delaney’s amazement that she could make a square from two triangles! :)

Happy playing!

  1. What a great tray to hold your paper…where ever did you find it?

    I love doing shape collages with my students and I adore that polka-dot critter!

  2. I just tried this with my two (almost three year old) and we had a blast! I blogged about it on my own blog if you care to see our adventure with your fun idea! Thanks for posting this!

  3. I’m going to start cutting now. I’ve been looking for some new sorts of things to do with my son and I think he’s going to like this.

  6. Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this idea. So simple yet… So creative… So unique. I’ve just added it to my MUST DO LIST!!!! Can’t wait to give it a try… my kiddos will love this. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. :):)
