Your children will have to explore these spring shadow-matching activity cards. If your children can’t read the words on the word cards, you could read them to them. You could read the word card to them and have them match the word you’ve read to the picture that matches it.
Do you have to use the spring shadow-matching activity cards this way? No, the above idea is just a suggestion. The cards can be used any way you want to use them.
