I got this idea from Joyful Mommy and Joyful Child. I love that blog!
I traced various shapes using different amounts of square tiles from Bear's set of pattern blocks one evening. The next day, I set out the cards for Bear, along with ten tiles in a cup. Her sandpaper numbers were spread out along the couch. She loved filling in the outlines. Then we counted the tiles together and she found the sandpaper number to trace. I think she is going through a sensitive period for tracing numbers because she traces numbers everywhere she finds them. She isn't that excited about tracing letters though.
I love your blog too! And the pattern blocks look great for this activity. I love the colors.
