Today’s Preschool Busy Activity : Buttons

This post may contain affiliate links.

Today I pulled out a bag of loose buttons that I’ve been collecting for years.  I told little Turkey to sort them by color and then by the number of holes.  Then he could string them on some floral wire by the number of holes on the buttons.  I hot glued a 2 holed button to the bottom of one wire and a 4 holed button to the bottom of another.  I guess I gave him too many instructions /things at once because although he started to sort them by color, he decided to string them at the same time.  He did all the odd button holed ones last instead of sorting those by color.  You can see where he began to forget about colors and just got string happy too LOL.  Either way he was developing some thinking and fine motor skills and I got about 20 mins to work. Next time I’ll keep the floral while until he’s sorted them all.  We all live and learn don’t we?  :-)
