This 1 page printable may seem like a simple activity, but there are many things you can do! First, have the kids sharpen their skills by cutting out the pieces along the dotted lines.

What you can do:

• Mix & Match – Switch the pieces around. Ask your child what would happen if they took the snowball to the beach or tried to play soccer with the beach ball?

• Play a game – Place the pictures facing down and take turns choosing pieces, see who can complete a friend first.

• Learn about the seasons – Which season is missing? Have them draw their own mixed up friend to complete the set!

Activities like these encourage cooperative play while engaging in fun games.

What You Need:

• Safety Scissors
