Buttons in a Can

Materials:
Old Buttons
A big can (or small, if you want to make it hard)
Tape (optional)
1. Put a can somewhere in or out of the house
2. Put some tape on the ground, so the kids know where to stand




3. Make them line up and take turns, take a button, and have them try to toss it into the can.
( I gave them 3 tries)
4. Leave it up all day, they liked just throwing things in there all day


**This is a really good opportunity to teach the skill of "standing in line and waiting their turn." I'm often amazed at how much these kids DON'T understand how to do this!
