Mouse Count Math Activities

Here are some quick and fun math activities to go along with the book, Mouse Count!

I made these snakes from color card-stock, then added a few designs and laminated.

Izzie practiced her measuring skills by counting how many paperclips long the snakes were.

She sorted the snakes by designs/patterns.

Then, by colors!

And, finally by length!

She completed this snake measuring activity (ruler and number stamps) from one of the many Mailbox books that I own...which, gave me the inspiration to create the above snakes!

She practiced her patterning skills (AB, ABB, and ABC).

Mouse Count Snake Patterns

Roll and Color Addition was a huge hit!

Izzie really enjoyed the snake activities, even though, she repeatedly told me, "I do not like snakes! Well, maybe just the cute baby ones!"

Mouse Count Felt Snake and Mice

My girls have been loving all the Ellen Walsh's books, especially Mouse Count. So, to help aid them in their recalling, I made them some story-props...a snake, 10 mice, and a rock! And, of course there's a collecting jar!

This little fella was made from one sock (my husband's) and felt for details.

I quickly sewed the 10 little mice together.

Hours of fun!
