Fruit Loop Fun!!

Mar20

One of our goals in math is to count. Let’s make it fun by using fruit loops to count, sort and then practice patterning.

A white plate with multiple color fruit loops on the plate
Start with a bowl or Plate of Fruit Loops with NO MILK

Have your child count as how many Fruit Loops are on the plate

You can practice sorting the Fruit Loops into separate color piles

A white plate with fruit loops sorted by color showing small groups of yellow, red, purple, blue and green fruit loops

Pick two colors and make a pattern 

A white plate with a small group of blue fruit loops and small group of yellow fruit loops. Then a line of patterned fruit loop yellow, blue, yellow, blue, yellow, blue

(if I know they need additional activity)
Try making this pattern 

A white plate with a pattern of orange and green fruit loops. Patter is one orange, two green, one orange, two green

or a pattern with three colors
