I Spy Games
My kiddos are always up for a good I Spy Games so I created several I SPY and Graph Printables:
This printable activity simply takes I SPY to a new level by adding a simple graphing component.
Just print, count, and color in the graph. You could use small manipulatives, crayons/markers, or Do A Dot markers for the graph. My 4-year-old was all about making "X's" to mark the number of items in the graph.
Your child will search the printable for six beach themed items: shell, flip flops, beach ball, umbrella, sandcastle, and the sun.
Have your child begin counting all the shells he/she finds, then using a marker or crayon to color in the number of boxes in the graph.
Continue counting and filling up the graph until everything is accounted for! When the graph is complete, ask your child:
- What item has the most boxes checked off?
- What item was there the least of?
- What items have the same number?
If your child is ready for more advanced questions and addition, you could ask:
- How many more of seashells are there than suns?
- How many more flip flops do we need to make 10?
Answer Key:
In the end your child should find:
- 4 seashells
- 2 suns
- 5 beach balls
- 3 flip flops
- 5 umbrellas
- 10 sand castles
