Category: Emotional Growth · Duration: ~6 min

Materials

• crackers or small snack

1. Put out a small pile of crackers or grapes (an even number, like 6 or 8). 2. Say, "Can you split these so we each get the same amount? Make it fair." 3. Let your little one figure it out — one for you, one for me. Help only if needed. 4. Try it with an odd number. "There's one left over — what should we do?" Let them decide. 5. Talk about how fair feels: "When it's even, everyone's happy."
