Spring Learning Tray Ideas for Toddlers

Super excited to share what I prepared for Max to work on this spring!   Check the activities below and tell me what tray/trays you want to try.

• BUG AND LEAF SHAPE MATCH. Matching ladybirds in a wooden peg to the leaf shapes.
• SAFARI TOOB FLOWER TOOBS MATCHING CARDS. Matching flower figures from Safari Toob to the Montessori 3 Part Cards (real images).
• FROG HEADS COLOR SORTING. Sorting colored frog heads using ball tongs from Learning Resources and sorting bowls. The frog heads are from here.
• FIVE LITTLE DUCKS. My son loves this, and I just have to add this to our shelf work. This work is all about reciting the song and counting activities.
• BIRD CUTTING SCISSOR SKILLS. Max loves to cut, and you can get these strips from our Scissor Skills Bundle Pack.
• SPRING OBJECTS MEMORY GAME. Learning spring vocabulary words, concentration, and visual recall. You can do this from MEMORY GAME BUNDLE PACK.
• FLOWER FACES MATCHING CARDS. Identifying and matching faces using glue.
• BEAN PLANT LIFE CYCLE. We are using these cards from EARLY CHILDHOOD LIFE CYCLE MATS PACK. Max enjoyed this activity!
• MOM AND BABY ANIMALS MATCH.   This is part of our SPRING PRESCHOOL UNIT.

Here's how we put some of these into action:

Max loves this small rainbow sugar jar where he places all the cut strips.

This is what our set-up looks like on the shelf. Max arranged those flowers with me. You can check it out on our Instagram account.
