I ask her to set plates and cups if we are missing any I ask her how many more do we need?. I also do sorting, and stable order rule when I count how many quesadillas I gave her, compared to her siblings. When we count how many quesadillas we ate in total I make sure I use appropriate vocabulary as well.

I loved this lesson so much

It also helps to incorporate healthy snack choices into bright colored fruits and veggies in math patterns

Exactly. Cooking and preparing food helps integrate many math learning concepts.

Food certainly gets the children’s attention. They can easily relate to the items and they can manipulate them in so many ways. Great activity!

I surely will be doing these things with my daycare children.

I never realized how much I was teaching my own children when I would have them in the kitchen with me!
