This was a fun read! I like that children are learning to estimate amounts. Also, this will help them get an understanding of how money is used to determine value or cost. I will try this out with the 2,3, and 4-year-olds.

I need to try something similar to this with my daycare children.

I liked this activity for ages 3 and 4. The jars are smaller with fewer number of items in them making it easier for children to distinguish the items and count.

In reply to Sheryl. That is a great idea and a way to extend the activity if the children\'s interest continues. I\'ll let my student know...

I like the jars you could use anything to estimate how many it takes to fill the jar and how much of each items it would take etc
