Challenge your preschooler to a game of shape match-up--an entertaining way to boost her observational ability.

Build your child's vocabulary by exploring and discussing spatial relationships during everyday activities such as building, rearranging, and ordering.

Your child will practice her counting and number recognition as she matches printed numbers to the same number of repetitions of a simple design.

You don't need to spend big bucks to buy a pre-boxed version of a matching game at the store. You can make your own easily. Here's how:
