Magnetic Pattern Block Activities

We Have pattern blocks, but for this trip I purchased a magnetic pair of cubes so the kids can use them on their baking sheets. I found the massive pattern block activities at PreKinders. I published a transport, snowflake, and animals set. The kids can every set a newspaper on their board and cover it using the magnetic cubes. I also printed the little set of designs from Kelly's Kindergarten and jump them with a ring. (You will need to shrink her designs prior to printing them should you want them small.) My older kids can recreate these images on their boards, ride on cars in canada.
