The simple game of Hop Scotch turned into an amazing teachable moment one day and a precious memory made with Jackson. We have played this before a few times, but this day it was different. The game finally made sense to him and his BIG boy self.
It was a very much "On-the-Go" lesson. He wanted to play the game and I secretly turned it into a teaching/learning opportunity.
I was so excited to see all that we had covered in this simple 10 minute Mommy and Me moment: fine and gross motor skills, handwriting, numerical order, following directions and LOTS of FUN!
Check out our pictures:

Happy Hopping with your Little Learners!
