Triangle Fun

Introducing your child to shapes helps them to understand their world better. Think about all of the interesting things you can make with triangles cut from construction paper.  For example: two triangles make a square or diamond or rectangle, six triangles make a hexagon, three triangles make a trapezoid, which is half a hexagon. Encourage your child to explore and create new shapes with the triangles. Give your child different-sized triangles and ask them to create pictures too.
