More and Less - Beach Scene Game

Bubble has been harping at me for the last few days about going to the beach but unfortunately the weather hasn't been exactly ideal. Yesterday we made our own beach in her room instead using beach towels and blankets and played some beach themed games. This quantity activity was great for teaching the concept of 'less and more', something Bubble is still getting the hang of.

WE USED:

* felt sheets (yellow and blue).
You could also use paper or any other coloured surface such as fabric, cutting boards, clothing etc...
* seashells

We laid our felt sheets down next to each other to make our 'beach'.

Then we took it in turns placing the shells so the other person could count and work out which side had more and which had less ( the sand or the water).
