What You Will Need

If you have a computer with a printer, you can create this activity for your child today. Here are some things you will need and a few additional suggestions.

Printer paper
Something to write with
If you would like to make the page a little sturdier, you could use card stock paper
If you would like to make the activity reusable (and save yourself some printer ink), you could laminate them using laminating pouches and a laminator or just use page protectors
If you are making it reusable, wet erase markers would really come in handy

How to Use the Shark I Spy Activity

Print out both pages for your child.
Have your child carefully look at the first page to see how many of each picture they can find. If it helps, they can mark each of the pictures as they count them.
Your child can then record the number for each on the second page.

How Can You Modify the Activity for Younger children?

For younger children, an adult could write the number for each picture. Your child could also just look to find the different pictures for fun without recording anything at all.
