Easter Egg Counting


I had some leftover Easter eggs from this alphabet activity and figured we could use some counting practice.  This idea has been all over pinterest, but I loved that Playing House added a counting manipulative to make it more exciting!  We have a bunch of pom-poms around, so they worked excellently.


I used a variety to keep it fun – some tiny ones, a couple big ones and the favorite…. sparkly purple ones!


I had enough pom-poms available to color coordinate to each egg which helped Abby complete numbers 5-10 independently.  She loved filling her eggs up!  I love that I can easily make this an exciting, new game by simply swapping the manipulative in a couple weeks.😊
