Kindergarten Math Box

My youngest son's kindergarten teacher sent him home with a Math Box, just for him, and for him to keep, and she sends home daily activities for him to do with it. It is absolutely wonderful for him, more of a game than learning, yet he learns SO much from it. It has been so great for him that I wanted to share it with you.

Contents:

Put the loose items such as the beans, toothpicks and buttons in plastic baggies.
