1 – Problem Solving – Tic Tac Toe
It doesn’t get any simpler than this, but can you believe that I’ve never played Tic Tac Toe with my Four? This was a great chance to give him practice writing X’s while also teaching him some problem solving and strategy.
2 – Patterns – Finish the X Pattern
Another super simple activity — but again, it gets the handwriting and math in there together!
If you haven’t introduced subtraction to your preschooler, now’s a great time. Draw a set of items, tell him how many to “X out,” and count how many are left.

These are some really great ideas! I’m going to share with my homeschool group and bookmark so I can come back when my son is a little bit older 🙂
