Matching Shoes

Matching Shoes, a simple sorting and matching activity from Making Boys Men


Some super quick fun today.  When Bud gets home from school, the boys can be a bit excitable so one day in desperate need of some distraction we started playing with the shoes by the door.  Next thing I know we have a whole game of matching pairs on our hands.

First the boys sorted all the shoes out, they all live in a big box jumbled up together so this took a bit of time (phew distraction achieved!).

Then we chatted a little about how the boys could tell which shoes matched and why.  Then the game changed to pretending to be a shoe factory, then changed again to trying to wear all my shoes - oh joy!
