The children showed immediate engagement with the light table, drawn by the vibrant colours of the splats and blocks. The task of identifying and matching colours was readily embraced by the group, successfully placing coloured blocks onto their corresponding splats demonstrating strong colour recognition and matching skills.As they built their towers, children began counting the blocks. Some using scattered number language, with many children accurately counting their blocks up to at least three, and some extending beyond that. Towards the end of the activity, the concept of comparing height emerged naturally. Children pointed to and discussed the "tallest" and "smallest" towers they had built or observed. The activity successfully provided a multi-faceted opportunity for mathematical exploration through hands-on, sensory play.
