Using Math Skills for Making Christmas Crafts for Kids

Video Transcript

"Hello I am Katalin. I am the creator of Creative Village in Hungary. This is my daughter and this is my son. Hello I'm Barbara. Hello I'm Manson. We are here on behalf of Expert Village. Today we are going to make a Christmas present. So, for a while we can put this tree aside and in the meantime we need to cut out twenty four little squares. We will need to put all the numbers on the top of each square. And then we are going to stick them on the rolls because they are going to be the parts of the calendar. So you try to cut them the same size. And twenty four. Thought we need twenty two. We need twenty four. And, counting in twos can improve your child's mathematical skills because it's a bit unusual from counting in one. So, with these sort of tasks you can actually help them improve in their math skills. Okay, now the next step. Please give half of them to Marty and please keep the other half. Let's get a pen or a pencil. So one of you should write the numbers from one to twelve. I'll write it from one to twelve. In this exercise you can ask your children to write the odd numbers or the even numbers. Or you can ask your children to count backwards or you can also ask your children to write every third number so there is variation of playing mathematical games. They will enjoy that because they don't actually notice they are doing math. They concentrate on the numbers and they will like this task."
