Playing This Fun Visual Discrimination Game
Print out the sheets and cut the colored Halloween creatures and objects into individual pieces.
This would be a great file folder game so I suggest pasting the second sheet with the shadows into a file folder. You could laminate this and also the colored pieces and then stick velcro dots behind each piece.
Ask your child to match up the faces to their respective shadows.
