Ingredients:
A banana
Oreo Minis
Directions: A simple way to reinforce the concept of patterning is to create a pattern you can eat! This easy snack does just that.
Cut the banana into slices. Put a banana slice on the plate. Next to it, place an Oreo Mini cookie. Then put down another banana slice followed by another Oreo Mini. Repeat the pattern a few more times. We served this snack on a long, narrow strip of construction paper so we could repeat the sequence multiple times! Ask your child what comes next in the pattern. Can he extend the pattern on his own?
