Muffin Tin Monday - Team Umizoomi Snack Patterns


The show Team Umizoomie on Nick Jr. has made B LOVE to work with patterns. For months I've been trying and trying to create opportunities to work on these and talk about them and he went along with it but wasn't thrilled about it until watching Team Umizoomie. They have the cutest song about a snack pattern that we've changed and used to create so many other patterns.

So for Muffin Tin Monday this week we made our own snack patterns. I made the first two and then left the ingredients in cups for B to make a couple. So fun!
