Painted Rocks: Teaching Your Child Colors and Numbers with Painted Ladybugs Stones

Ladybug Color Counting Stones

Daylight savings time is here for some of us, Spring arrives next week, and Summer is not far behind.

Collecting and painting rocks is a fun activity to keep kids busy during Spring and Summer breaks. Why not combine fun with a learning experience by teaching young children their numbers and colors with painted ladybugs rocks.

Teaching concepts using the painted stone ladybugs are:

• Color recognition
• Number recognition
• Counting skills
• Small to large concept
• Basic addition and subtraction

Get the kids outdoors and start collecting smooth round or oval rocks, counting as you go. As an added bonus, you will all get a little Vitamin N (nature).
