Now a days we do a lot of indoor activities. On Mimi's 3rd birthday she received a box of patterns. At that time it was just a smidgen above her head as to what to do with them but now at 5 years old she knows exactly what to do. Plus at school they have been learning all about patterns and everything has to be a pattern including the way she dresses. Mimi tells me "Mom, today I'm going to dress like a boy (pants and shirt), tommorrow I'm going to dress like a girl (dress or skort) like that ok? It's called a pattern, boy, girl, boy, girl." This particular set came with several wood tiles with the pattern already painted on them and you are to take the smaller pieces and make the same pattern as the tile. After copying some of the patterns, Mimi decided to make her own. Kept her busy for a couple of hours till the Charlie Brown Christmas specials came on tv.
