What Skills Can Your Children Learn and Practice?

ย 

Here are a few of the skills that your little ones can learn and practice when playing this game.

  • Visual Scanning โ€“ This is an important early reading skill. It is the ability to use their vision to search in a systematic way, from top to bottom or left to right. This skill also helps them move around without bumping in to things.
  • Counting โ€“ Theyโ€™ll have to count carefully if they want to ensure they get the correct answers.
  • Practicing Number Formation โ€“ When they write how much of an item there is theyโ€™ll get a chance to practice their number formation. Try to gently correct them if they do it wrong. You may want to print off this Valentineโ€™s Day game so they have some heart shaped numbers to use as a guide.
  • Practicing Their Pencil Grip and Improving Pencil Control โ€“ Any time your child picks up a pen or pencil is a great chance to practice and develop these skills.
  • Concentration and Perseverance โ€“ Thereโ€™s a lot to spot here so your little ones will have to remain focused if they want to finish the game.

How Your Children Can Play This Valentineโ€™s Day I Spy Game

ย 

You can play it the standard way, letting them practice their counting and visual scanning skills to see if they can successfully find all the Valentineโ€™s Day themed objects.

But you could also get them to spot a specific object. For example, โ€˜circle the heart that is next to two rosesโ€™.

You could also flip it around so that they are describing things for you to find. This will be great for their language development as theyโ€™ll have to be really specific and use the correct prepositions if they want you to find the right one.

If you laminated a copy youโ€™ll be able to play this again and again!

If your little ones havenโ€™t got to the stage where they are able to write numbers yet you could always just get them to say them with you and practice counting together carefully.

Or you could print a second copy, and cut out several of the pictures and get them to match it to the correct one. This could actually be pretty tricky as the images are different sizes and may be rotated in different ways as well.

I hope your little learners enjoy this Valentineโ€™s Day I Spy worksheet!
