Help Kids Recognize Patterns

In addition to making sure that your children are able to use patterns books, it's also a good idea to pick up some fun games that help them learn how a pattern works. For example, many games use fun shapes, like large paper clips, monkeys or blocks to encourage children to group like colors and shapes together. Stickers are another way to help them see similar patterns between shapes, and these can even be used inside of their books, as well. Pattern comprehension games get more complicated as you go up in grade level, so make sure you are checking the age group on the one that you're interested in.

The patterns books that we offer are geared towards children who are in elementary school. They start at an easy to comprehend level that's perfect for kindergarteners, and they slowly progress in difficulty so that they are suitable for older students, up to the fourth grade. We're sure that you'll be able to find a book set that's perfect for your classroom's needs. You may even want to have your children practice making their own patterns that they can exchange with each other, so make sure you check out some of the cut out templates we offer, too!
