Dominoes

Kanani hasn't been feeling good so we decided we would take it easy.  Today she wanted to play a game but didn't have a lot of energy.  I remembered that I had purchased a dominoes game that we still haven't had a chance to play with.  Once I brought that out her face lit up with excitement.  



Found this set at one of our local thrift stores, love bargain items.
One side of the card are animals with numbers on it and the other side are dots to help with counting.  We even went over all the different colors of each animal.  



She loved looking at the different animals and matching them with the other cards.



Even little man got into the game.



Here is our completed side of animal and number matching.



She wanted to continue to play with the dominoes but on the dot side.



She did an excellent job and matching the numbers and counting the dots.



Here is our completed dot side.



He tired to be sneaky and keep one of the cards from us, silly little boy.

After we were done with the game we read the book that went perfect with the dominoes game "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you do see?, by Bill Martin Jr/Eric Carle.
