Pot of Gold Game

A little game that has been getting a lot of play time in my classroom is the "Pot of Gold" game.  I posted about it last year and you can CLICK HERE to read that post.  This is a really fun game for two friends to play.  It promotes turn-taking and counting concepts.  It would be very easy to make for your little ones in the classroom or at home.........just in time for St. Patrick's Day next week.

Hi, Jessica. Thanks for writing. My program is half day only so we dont have to deal with the lunch issue. However, I do encourage healthy snacks. If you are interested in the handout I send home about that Id be happy to forward it to you.
Take care,

That's a cute game. I'm gonna see if I can make something like that tomorrow for the next couple of weeks in my room. Also I was wondering have you ever sent home a handout to parents about what their child's lunch should contain i.e. protien, dairy, veggie, fruit. I want to make one to hand out because some of our parents send lunches that I feel just aren't healthy enough and I know this is the time to instill good eating habits into the kids and if we just give up now they won't start eating properly until they're adults if then. So I was wondering if you had something along those lines I could maybe borrow/use, if so thanks so much.
