Raise your hand if you have made a cootie catcher when you were a kid. Well, I have! 🙋. They go by multiple names like a paper fortune teller or chatterbox and a couple more.
If you don't know, a cootie catcher is a form of origami paper folding game. Parts of the cootie catcher are labelled with colors or numbers for players to choose from and the inside has a message or action item for the players. Based on the number or color the player chooses, the cootie catcher needs to be adjusted.
If you're looking for a fun preschool activity for mother's day, this cootie catcher is just a perfect mothers day ideas for kids.
What I love about this activity is that kids can spell each word out loud as they open and close the cootie catch. so LOVE would mean open and close 4 times. Also, older kids can spell the color out too.
There are some really sweet activities that kids can do for their mothers as they play the game.
Isn't it a wonderful way to wish Happy Mother's Day?
