Wrapping Packages

The curriculum I have been using with the kids suggested letting the kids wrap a package. We pulled out some old Christmas wrapping paper, some tape, and some empty boxes and just let them try. They were given no advice or instructions, but had observed us (mostly Wonderful Husband) wrapping presents before.

They both had a good start. It's those pesky ends that will complicate things.

Clearly they are using different methods. They both ended up with a box that was wrapped. They both had a great time. They also got to open each other's box. It was fun and they certainly used fine motor skills and problem solving in ways I had never considered before.
