TOY PICTURE SNAP GAME
Expand upon children’s toy vocabulary whilst playing a fun game of snap (or a memory game of ‘picking up pairs’) with this set of snap cards. The cards are made with a tab/patterned back which can be folded before lamination in order to strengthen the final product. This also means that when turned over, the picture on the front can not be seen.

TOY MEMORY OR MATCHING GAME
Set of 20 cards. Use appropriate number of cards for your children in an invitation to play or adult led activity. These cards may be used in a number of ways. Placed facing up on a table, children can simply match up the pairs placing them next to each other or alternatively, they may want to collect them as they go. A further challenge could be a memory and turn taking game of ‘Picking up Pairs’. The cards are made with a tab which can be folded before lamination in order to strengthen the final product. This also means that when turned over, the pattern on the front can not be seen.

'DESIGN A TOY' SHEETS
Six ‘Design a toy’ sheets included. Intended to challenge children to think of their own toy designs by giving them a nugget of inspiration, e.g. ‘Design a toy with wheels’ or ‘Design a fluffy toy’. Designs could include drawings and possibly emergent writing such as labels. Children may also describe their designs and an adult could scribe (write down) their thoughts/explanations.

OUR FAVOURITE/FAVORITE TOYS PICTOGRAM DISPLAY
‘Our Favourite Toys’ Pictogram Chart pictures and banner designed for children to not only think about their favourite toy, but also realise that others may not have the same favourite. In addition, children begin to learn about simple graphs and charts. Ideal for use in a classroom, preschool, nursery or childminder setting. Children do not have to necessarily complete the activity at the same time, but a chart can be added to a display and individual children can add their own favourites at appropriate times. Simply place any of the eight large toys on the first page in a horizontal line to form the base of the chart and children can add their own favourite smaller toy above to create the vertical lines of a chart. The lengths of the lines can be compared and number of toys on each can be counted to find totals. Questions such as ‘How many children like toy cars?’ may be asked. To really extend mathematical thinking, questions such as ‘How many more children like playing with footballs than marble runs?’
