Popsicle sticks (craft sticks) aren’t just for popsicles! These shape craft stick task cards are a simple, hands-on way for children to build shape recognition while having fun. Children use popsicle sticks or craft sticks to recreate each shape shown on the task cards, helping develop fine motor skills, spatial awareness and early geometry concepts through play.
The task cards print two per page, making them perfect for math centers, small groups, independent practice or one-on-one learning. Simply print, cut and laminate for a reusable activity that can be used again and again.
Helpful Tip: Add a small piece of Velcro to the ends of the craft sticks to help them stay connected while children build each shape.
