Pattern recognition and sequences play a big role in children’s learning. This particular activity is a little more interactive and allows children to not only decode and complete the missing sequences but participate in their design.
The child can cut out all of the sequence shapes and the bar at the bottom and then the parent or teacher can create sequences with one or two spaces left blank for the child to fill in on their own. Optionally the child can create their own partial sequences and have others complete them using the cut-outs!
