Math concepts, August Activities
August 2-National Ice Cream Sandwich Day
Ice cream sandwiches aren’t just a warm-weather treat; they’re a lesson in beginning concepts. Ask your child to point out the top, middle, and bottom of an ice cream sandwich. (Here’s a tricky one: Flip the sandwich over. Has the top and bottom changed?) Make other kinds of “sandwiches,” using blocks, Play-Doh®, fabric, sponges, or real bread and food fillings, and direct your child to add the top, middle, or bottom layer. Create multi-decker sandwiches and count each layer. Identify all the sandwich ingredients by color, size, and shape. Whether they’re cold or hot, real or not, when you turn sandwiches into a learning tool, they become great brain food!
