Garden Counting Mat



As we have been doing lots of activities on flowers and gardens this month, I thought I'd compliment our theme with a little Maths by creating this garden counting mat.  (When I say I created it, I really mean, I designed it and then passed the bits of felt to my very capable mother who cleverly sewed them together!)  Wugs isn't that keen on counting and doesn't see the point, but I offer it as an invitation for him to play with it as he chooses.

What we used:
Brown, green felt
Flower counters
A dice with 12 numbers on it
