I previously shared how I made my own textured pizza box puzzles and during that same DIY game making spree, I also created these super fun craft stick magnets for our large magnetic board…
I purchased colored craft sticks for this process but you could certainly paint your own set of craft sticks. On both ends of each craft stick, I hot glued a magnet…
I also hot glued some of the craft sticks together to make shapes and added the magnets on the shapes…
Today was the first day I set out the craft stick magnets and the children explored the craft stick magnets on our large magnetic board…
Immediately, I could hear the children naming the shapes of the different magnets and deciding how they could make their own shapes…
This is easily an open ended DIY activity as we will be able to use the magnetic craft sticks to explore patterns, shapes, counting, colors, and more…
Super fun and super easy to make…
