Beach - sorting shells in artful ways


Sorting shells is fun for little and big people!
We filled a basket with a bunch of different types and sizes of shells and had some fun learning.


What else did we use?
~ this sorting sheet from Playful Learning (page 14)
~ small baskets
~ a sheet of white poster board
 
We sorted according to shape, type of shell and size.




Then we arranged the shells in mandala type designs.




Simple learning fun!

  6. What a lovely post. Reminded me of making pictures on the floor out of shells with my children quite a lot of years ago after a holiday at the seaside. Liked seeing the sand dollars too.
