Button Box

Do you have a button box at home or at your school?  

We have several.

I found this book The Button Box at our local library.

It proved to be great to go on one our play trays with a box of buttons.

 The children found various ways to play with it.

Matching buttons to the pictures.

 Checking out each page to see what attracts them.

 Making a spiral of buttons.

Or just running their fingers through the buttons.

Many of the grown ups reminisced about their mother's or grandmother's button box.

It was a wonderful opportunity for adult and child to do
together.
