Quick Cookie Cutter Matchup Game {Busy Bag Idea}
Lately I’ve been on a roll when it comes to making busy bag activities. I’ve seen so many ideas on Pinterest and I’ve been INSPIRED! {No really – I have about ten blog posts in the works to share with you all}
It doesn’t hurt that most of the ideas I have seen & made, have been on the cheap and easy side too.
I normally create my busy bag activities during naptime and they take me 30 minute tops to complete.
Then as soon as Lil Man wakes up, I introduce the new learning game and we play for about an hour with it. I’m also getting in the habit of changing the ones I keep out for daily play, so the fun doesn’t get “old” too fast. {I just need to figure out a better system on storing them all!}
And even though my son is only three, I’m always amazed when he figures something out without me even explaining it. I gave him this Cookie Cutter Matchup Game the other day and he instantly knew what to do. I might have to “challenge” him a bit and make a few new sheets with other cookie cutter shapes I have.
Here is how YOU can make this cookie cutter game for your toddler today:

Directions:
1. Cut one piece of cardstock in half. {I cut it in half so it fit nicely in a large plastic baggie} Now lay out your cookie cutter shapes on the two pieces. Figure out exactly where you want them to be. Then one by one, trace them with a sharpie marker.
2. Now laminate your cardstock pieces.
3. To play the game, just have your child match up the cookie cutter shape to the matching space.

To store, place in a large plastic baggie. Once your child outgrows the game, throw away the laminated sheets and keep the cookie cutters. Nice, right?
