Playing is fun and learning can be too!

Marble Bowling! Ages 3+

Age 3+, Age 4+, Age 5+, Age 6+, Early Years Math, Fine Motors, Fine/Gross Motor Skills, Math, Number Sense, Number Sense, Numbers, Preschool

This was a fun way to work on our sets of 10. The boys enjoyed setting up the pins (marker tops) all different ways. Then they would roll the marble to see how many pins they could knock down. How many pins did you knock down? How many pins are left?

Materials:
10 marker tops
pan
marble

When the boys started they were setting the marker tops up like bowling pins. Then they started getting creative and setting the pins up all different ways. Sometimes they would bounce the ball off the wall to try and knock down the marker tops. To make it easier you can work on sets of 5. To make it harder you can work on sets of 20.

Here is a video of the boys doing the activity!
