Geoboard Fun

I’ve been wanting some geoboards for a while now so when I found this tutorial on Play Create Explore I decided to make them.  Super easy!
This activity fits right in our with our rainbow fun when we use stretchy craft loops (I found a package at Michael's for about $5.00) for making shapes & designs.



This type of geoboard works best on the carpet because it slips around on the table otherwise due to the screw heads on the back of the board. I think just adding a piece of craft foam or drawer liner to the back will solve that problem.

I bought the pegboard at Home Depot. Someone very helpfully cut one down to the size I needed, about (2) 1’ x 1’. I will use the leftover piece for another project. Less than $15 for 2.


Ideas for geoboards, depending on age: 

• making shapes, “make a shape with three sides”, etc.
• Copying pictures
• forming letters & numbers
• make patterns to follow {another project on my list}
