This is a cute activity that I like to do with my students around St. Patrick's Day time. It comes with a black pot, cloud, and coin templates. Kids can get creative with the rainbow folding accordion-style, twirling it, or simply leaving it straight.

This activity is great for beginning math skills. Your little Einsteins will have fun "mastering the art" of counting to ten and recognizing how ten is made.

Easy way to go over rules at the beginning of the year with your young students.
