While the toddler napped my four year old and I built a leprechaun trap using an old tissue box.I loved seeing her get creative with all the craft supplies.She loved pretending the leprechaun was already inside.

4-Dice -Domino Game

Homeschool math activity with dice and dominos

These concept provide a foundation for understanding basic math equations.With these games,children learn to break apart numbers to find partners.
For example:(6=4+2)
Having your child/children sort out the dominos needed for each of these games is part of their learning,so let them pick their own dominos for the game.

For level 1,let them sort out dominos whose dots total from 1 to 6.Them they put each domino on each petals of their flower.As you can see,I made a spider since I have a boy.Players take turns following one dice,looking for a domino that totals the number they rolled.If they have one,they then remove that domino from their flower or spider.

If the player has no domino that totals the number,he or she misses that turn.The first player to remove all of the dominos from his or her daisy,spider or whatever you choose to use,is the winnner.
Level 2 is pleated the same way,except that this time players will be rolling 2 dice and will need dominos that total 2 to 12.This game can be used for alphabets,sight words,numbers,or etc…
