Babies Love Flashcards (Ro's First Maths)


Today, "Ro", my little crier, found comfort in something "most" adults would consider quite strange: math dots.

Now, granted, I have been around a lot of babies and a lot of little kids and it comes as no surprise to me that tiny tots love flashcards. Babies, especially, seem to have a special love affair with the math dots (quantity cards) which tend to produce smiles, laughs, and intense concentration and fascination.

But even Ro (nineteen months) surprised me today with his initial introduction to the math dots. Being my little crier (who doesn't appreciate being away from his mama) the quantity cards seemed to have an instant effect on him beginning with the usual peculiar yet fascinated focus, followed by smiles and then laughs. Typical response, really.

The surprising part? When I put them away, he started crying. When I got them back out and continued showing them to him, he would smile and giggle, and then burst with laughter and dancing each time I got to ten. Rewind and repeat fifteen times before I finally distracted him by showing him some presidents bits to look at on his own.

Yes, babies love flashcards. And Ro, well, he really loves them.

  1. Hi Elizabeth,

    Thank you for your wonderful website...it has a wealth of information and inspiration.

    I was wondering, where did you buy the outline world map in the background.

    Thanks,
    Msis

  2. Unfortunately, I actually got that map passed down to me from my mom, she bought it years ago, so I have no clue where she bought it.

    The original map was just a black and white outline map with no labels, I added the colors by tracing the countries with different colored permanent markers.

    Good luck and I hope that you are able to find one somewhere, sorry I wasn't able to point you in the right direction!
