Hello everyone!
Today I have a fun little craft you can do with your kids and it’s educational : ) That’s a win win right?
Aubrey is in preschool this year and Addison wishes she was. They are so eager to learn and I just don’t want to hinder that!
So I made some
Wooden Number Magnets
I decided to do numbers instead of alphabet because both my kids rock at letter recognition. I mean.. I helped but Thank You Super Why! lol.
My kids both love to count to… Aubrey is really grasping how the twenties, thirties, and so on work, so I wanted to start working with him on number recognition.
Usually when I ask him to tell me what time it is he will say “It’s five-two-four” instead of five twenty four. So in order to do that I made a wooden magnet with each number so we can go through and work on this. I’ll work with Addison too, she is desperate to be caught up with her bubby. She even makes up stories about what she did at her “school” so cute!
These are seriously super super easy to make! Here is what you’ll need.
{Supplies}
– PSA Stamp with the number peel and stick pack
– Wooden circles from Hobby Lobby
– Magnet strip
To make them, you just stamp each of the numbers onto the wooden circles and let dry. Then cut a little square off your magnet strip and stick it on the back. My magnet strip was a peel and stick so you might have to glue it on depending what kind you get.
Then you just stick them on your fridge and practice practice practice!
The kids love playing with them too!
Did I mention these look way better than those ugly little plastic ones? I always hated those… maybe it’s just me : )
For more great ideas on what you can do with PSA Stamps, make sure and check out their blog! There is some great stuff on there! Be sure to fan them on facebook too so you can keep up with all the great deals and giveaways!
So what fun learning games do you do with your kids? I’m always looking for some fun ideas to keep the kids occupied!
Disclosure: I was not compensated for this post. I did receive free product as a member of the PSA Essentials Design Team
LOVE these! We have some magnetic wooden numbers that I picked up at the dollar store, but I like yours much more!
If you’re interested, I’d love to have you link up at my Teaching Time for Toddlers post!

Such a cute idea! It would be fun to make some with letters, too.
These are great! My little one could use these and she loves magnets!
Take care,
Trish
Undoubtedly, every year we look for new and new methods of teaching and helping our children and students. But no doubt I still use the site where they write me great content essays and help me write something thematic for the lesson. I will also take your idea into action, thank you.
Good day! Your atikl is very interesting.
I work as an educator with preschool children and am always looking for new ideas for their accelerated development. I like different techniques with numbers and alphabets. In my professional essay, I considered how such games affect the development of children under 6 years old. On the read more source, I learned several techniques similar to the one you use. I don’t know if you came up with it on your own or also found it somewhere, but I’m glad that you liked it and it helps. In preschool education of children, the use of such games for development is very useful.
