Montessori-Inspired Kite Activities Using Free Printables
Kite Counting Activity
Kite Counting Tray
For this activity, I used the free kite counting printable from the Prek Letter K Printables by Confessions of a Homeschooler. I added ribbons to each of the kites and included 10 miniature clothespins from a craft store. I used a large plastic tray and large hemmed work rug from Montessori Services.
