Parent Tips 🌟
- Shape Walks: Go on a "shape hunt" around your neighborhood and point out circles (tires, clocks), squares (windows, tiles), and triangles (roofs, yield signs).
- Play with Shapes: Use cookie cutters, blocks, or paper cutouts to create shape collages or sort objects by shape.
- Sing About Shapes: Make up simple songs like "A circle's round like a pizza pie, a square has corners way up high!"
