Math is more than just numbers on a piece of paper. Cook a Winnie the Pooh Bear snack and incorporate math skills into a fun treat that preschoolers can make. Mix up a batch of sugar cookies using a recipe from any cookbook. Have the preschooler help measure the ingredients. Once the dough is done, roll it out and use Winnie the Pooh cookie cutters to make special cookies. You can find themed cookie cutters online or in craft stores.
A no-cook version is Pooh Bear Honey Butter spread on graham crackers. Have the preschooler measure equal amounts of honey and soft butter into a bowl. Let them mix the two items together and then spread it on graham crackers. Incorporate math concepts into this activity by showing how the graham cracker can be divided in half or into four equal sections. They can also count out how many snacks they will need to make for the family or group.
