Placemat Fun!

I have had trouble finding a placemat for Hayden that I like. It seems the stores only carry character plastic mats and no ABC or truck ones. So, we decided to make our own. I put the alphabet letters on and let Hayden put on the balls and trucks. It was interesting to observe his placement of the stickers. He sorted them as he went...grouping all the various balls together as well as the trucks and diggers. Since making and laminating the place mat I had a friend tell me about www.crocodilecreek.com which has a great selection of place mats.

Carefully selecting which sticker to put on next.

A job well done!

Notice the groupings of like objects.
