Perfect for Muffin Tins

These snowflake number circles will fit perfectly in the bottom of a muffin tin and kids can use them as they practice counting puff balls, small snowflake ornaments, beads, erasers, etc. Disclaimer:  WARNING.  Small parts can present a choking hazard.  Use larger counters for children under 3 years. I included 7 ideas for using number circles in my previous post.  Now, I would like to share an additional idea – making number counting containers.

I have a bunch of these little ice cream containers at home.  My kiddo happens to be an ice cream lover, and we frequently purchase packages of Blue Bell’s single-serving cups.  You haven’t heard of Blue Bell ice cream?……then you must not be in Texas.  Texans are crazy about this stuff…..and I must say that it is pretty good.  If you don’t have the handy Blue Bell containers – don’t worry.  Any type of small container (like Ziploc containers or small potato chip containers) will work too.

I began by covering my containers and lids with light blue card stock.  I then, cut out a set of printable snowflake number circles and attached them to the lids with double-stick tape.

If you cut out a second set of snowflake number circles and add them to the inside of each cup, kids can practice numeral recognition as they match the numbers on the lid with the number inside the cup.  Putting the lids on the cups and taking them off is also a great fine motor exercise for kids.

Here, I added stickers to the top of milk caps to use as counters.  If you use two different colors of counters, kids can practice composing and decomposing numbers.
