Matching Stickers Lacing Cards

Today a bunch of kid bloggers are sharing activities For the Love of Learning- learning activities with a love theme, just in time for Valentine’s Day! 

I made a matching heart lacing card with stickers. This learning activity works on fine motor skills, hand eye coordination and visual skills(identifying matching stickers).

This is how it was made:

I used pink craft foam and two sets of identical stickers:
stickers and craft foamA heart was cut out of the foam and holes were punched all around. To get it symmetrical, I folded the foam in half and cut half the heart. To make the holes symmetrical, I punched one side, then made markings with a screw to know where to make the other holes, so it is opposite each other: 

heart and holes   

Stickers were attached randomly, and a plastic string were secured at the back:

  

For younger children: use less stickers and holes. My 5.5 year old coped well with a lot of stickers, but the 3 year old got a bit confused with the instruction in at the front- out at the back, lol!
  

Make sure your string is long enough to go through all the holes!

Finished lacing heart:

 

The child can randomly match the correct hearts or you could number the one set of hearts to work in some number skills too.

  
Help your child love learning by making it fun!
