I am already thinking ahead to Mother’s Day gifts. The Head Start I am volunteering at a few times a month was looking for a gift that mother’s would think was cute and wouldn’t take up a ton of class time to put together or tap into resources from the budget.
I created this template and brought it in to show the director. Meet our children’s Mother’s Day gift. Print, glue, fill and done!
Like it? Feel free to print it out and use it yourself. Download the —> Seed Packet Template. You have to fold the tabs and glue them to assemble the envelope. Then, just fill them with seeds. Instant gift!

This number recognition and one to one counting activity would go well with a Hat, Shoes, Pockets Theme, Dr. Seuss Theme or just to use to reinforce skills in centers.
Directions To Make:
1.) Download the patterns 1-6 Pockets and 7-12 Pockets and print them out.
2.) Photocopy the patterns onto blue construction paper and laminate them.
3.) Cut out the pockets to be used as a top table manipulative set.
Directions to Play:
1.) Collect 78 small items to place in a bowl as sorters. It can be all one object or mix the objects up for fun.
2.) Place all the pockets out in front of you.
3.) Read the number on the card and place that many objects on the pocket.
