Spooning Marbles

This week one of our learning centers is spooning marbles into a water bottle.  This has been a huge hit.  Even my most wiggly kiddos have stuck with it until they got the bottle completely full.  Then comes their favorite part:  shaking them back out.  Fortunately, because of the narrow neck of the water bottle, they have to work a bit at this!  (It's fortunate because then we don't have marbles all over the school!  Well, not as many.)

Here one of my three year olds has resorted to using her hand instead of the spoon to put the marbles in, but that is just fine, it's still hand eye coordination at work.
