Think It Through Thursday: Counting

Build a Bunny

The kids and I put together a bunny building game. The game is a "hoppy" way to practice counting the dots on a dice & following directions. Each of us began the game with a blank bunny form. On each turn we rolled the dice. Depending on the number rolled, the kids followed the key to pick the next part of their bunny. If they rolled a number they already had, they passed the dice on without adding to their creation.

The winner was the first player to build a bunny with all 6 parts: fabric bow, clothes pin ears, pipe cleaner mouth, cotton ball tail, pom pom eyes & nose, and yarn whiskers.

When the kids get tired of playing we will glue the bunnies together, but until then the pieces are reusable.
