Under the Weather

Sorry I have been MIA.  The whole family came down with the flu that spread through our school like a plague.  It moved from one person to the next so it has been a long weekend and start of the week.  I will have some new stuff up soon....I promise!

Bankrupt Money Game from Growing Kinders

I LOVE this simple but fun game from Growing Kinders.  Thought I would share for those of you trying to help their little ones learn this difficult concept.

I actually added little circles with the bankrupt words to mine so they couldn't feel to tell which ones were coins and which were not.  I have some tricky kids!
