Cupcake play dough counting and number recognition

Play dough is one of our favorite things to do and the kids have been asking to play with it for the last couple of day so we took it out. I added a little fun twist to it for some learning time.

Jake and Cate love to pretend play like they are cooking, so I took out the cupcake liners and cupcake pans they made pretend cupcakes.

 We added candles to the cupcakes to sing Happy Birthday. After they put the candles in their cupcakes I had them count them and match the correct number to the candles.


Since Jake knows his numbers I did a little math with him.


After we did number recognition and some simple math, the kids wanted me to light the candles to sing and they blew them out.
Was too cute!!


Playing and counting fun


This was a fun and simple way to bring learning to play. The kids loved this.

Thanks for stopping by to see what fun stuff we are doing. Be sure to come follow us on
