Winter Freeze Number Puzzle Strips Setup
For this activity you will need:

Playing This Fun Winter Math Game
This number order activity is simple to prepare. Simply print out the puzzle you wish to use and cut them up into strips.
I recommend laminating them if you wish to reuse them and, especially, in a classroom setting. Alternatively, you could stick them unto popsicle sticks.
If you don’t have a colored printer, don’t worry! I have included a black and white version too. Print it out and extend the activity by having your child color it in before you cut it into strips!
Pair Up This Numbers Activity
Here are some great books to get talking about hibernation, snow and all things winter:
Winnie the Pooh: The Long Winter’s Sleep – Winnie the Pooh needs to be brave when he hears noises in the night
The Gruffalo: Autumn and Winter Nature Trail is based on the classic book, The Gruffalo. The sticker and activity book encourages children to explore nature around them, even when it’s cold outside.
Secrets of Winter: Shine A Light Book is a great choice for bedtime as the torch reveals a hidden picture.
