Getting Ready

After printing out the pages (below), I cut along the black lines to separate each puzzle.

I wanted to be able to easily sort the matching pieces later, so I laid them upside down on our table and used a different colored crayon to draw a line down the middle of each one. One puzzle had a blue line running down the center of its back, another puzzle had a red one and so on.

Then, I followed the grey lines to cut apart each puzzle and slid them into separate Ziploc bags.

When the prep work was complete, I invited Middle Brother (age 4) to join me. I handed him the 1 to 10 puzzle and challenged him to lay the pieces in 1-2-3 order. He was thrilled when he realized that he was piecing together a sunny yellow triceratops!

With some help, he worked through the 10 to 20 puzzle, too. The teen numbers are always tricky for kids but he had a few ah-ha moments when I covered up the tens place and pointed out that the ones were counting up just like the previous puzzle. 11, 12, 13…

Although Middle Brother could count past 20 verbally, I knew that he wasn’t quite ready to tackle the written numbers. So, I saved the rest of the puzzles for Big Brother (age 5). He was equally excited to get right to work building Jurassic animals.
