Montessori-Inspired Snowman Color Tray

If you’ve been following my blog, you know I’m a real fan of the great ideas and printables I find online. I love how simple they make it for teachers and parents to create attractive, inviting activities for school or home.

Today, I’m excited to be sharing links to two free printables that work well for creating a Montessori-inspired activity tray for winter. At PreK + K Sharing, I tell how I used the printables to create a Montessori-inspired activity tray that can be used for preschoolers at different ages and ability levels. I have a number of photos and ideas for creating and presenting a Montessori-inspired snowman color activity along with variations.

    I LOVE the colors written in both English and Spanish. I have been working on my Spanish fluency over the past 6 months (even went to Costa Rica for Spanish immersion for a month) and am still a couple years away from being fluent. I wish I’d been “immersed” as a child but I guess you’re never too old to learn a new language :) .

      Thanks, Fawn! What a great experience to go to Costa Rica for Spanish immersion! It definitely is easier to learn a second language as a child. i wish I’d been immersed as a child, too. It’s awesome that you’re working on it now, though! :)
