Looking for fall light table ideas? Try this pumpkin addition activity!
This little light table idea is a great one for fall. It's a great way for kids to practice counting and addition.
While we did this pumpkin addition activity on the light table, it's certainly optional to do it on the light table, meaning use what you have. The light table is just a preferred surface around here at the moment.
What You'll Need for this Fall Light Table Idea
For this pumpkin addition activity, we used:
- Clear cups - We recycled our applesauce containers for this activity.
- Clear container or plate
- Addition and equal symbols - You could certainly draw them on the light table using a dry erase marker or window marker instead.
Pumpkin Addition Activity on the Light Table
Count the corresponding number of pumpkins into the cups. Then dump both cups onto the plate at the end of the math problem. Then count up all the pumpkins on the plate to find out the answer!
Smaller kids will enjoy the scooping and dumping part of this activity, which is great for working on fine motor skills.
