How many numbers can you count?
Make a sandwich and Eat it on a picnic!
Guide them through the activity with the “sequence language” of“next, then what, and last” while making thesandwich.
For example, if you’re making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich:
- What should we do first? Get out the bread and put it on a plate.
- What comes next after we have the bread? Put the peanut butteron both sides.
- And then what? Now put the jelly on too.
- What should we do last? Put the bread together and eat it!
FINALLY, IT’S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER:
There is no exact order to follow. Your child might say “get thebread, peanut butter, and jelly” first.
Or they might add the jelly next instead of the peanut butter… helpthem keep the general order but don’t betoo legalistic about itand have fun!
This is an important skill they are learning and will help lead themto more independence!
