Height Chart

We discussed height and weight a couple of weeks ago and to make it more fun, Ynigo and I created our own height chart by making handprints.  To add more challenge, we used 3 colors to create a pattern.  This activity helped Ynigo learn patterns aside from measuring his height (and mommy and daddy's too).  Young children need to start measuring using objects that they can relate to (objects that are concrete) since units of measurement are still too abstract for them.  

Ynigo is 8 handprints tall
