When your child is itching for a game, consider ditching Hide and Seek in favor of Shape and Seek. Here's how it works:

Here's a Halloween, math activity: have your preschooler or pre-kindergartener carve shapes into a Jack-O-Lantern face and boost her shape recognition skills.

Here's Twist 'N Turn: let your preschooler or pre-kindergartener be outside and active while learning about shapes, colors, directions, and word recognition.

Help your preschooler create ice cube bead necklaces to cool off while practicing gross motor skills and sequencing, and discussing states of matter.

Cornucopia still life painting is a great activity for your young artist to look at light and shadow, textures and composition in creating art at Thanksgiving!

Boost shape recognition with this matching game where your child will pair up sticks to create simple shapes.

Help your preschooler or preschooler with shape recognition, math, and matching by creating your own personal shapes cards, good for home or car.

Build your child's vocabulary by exploring and discussing spatial relationships during everyday activities such as building, rearranging, and ordering.

Disguise a lesson focused on shape recognition as a Santa collage, and your pre-kindergartener won't even realize she's learning!
