Creating this first discovery box has been a learning experience. I hope to use it with children in kindergarten or first grade. The challenge was finding text at a low enough reading level that was both interesting enough to include and could have a three dimensional object associated with it. I succeeded in locating six objects and am in search of just two additional. I'll check the Christmas tree ornaments for a small sled and the cat/dog toys for a football. I'm fairly confident I'll be able to do so. My next box will be "polar bears" to use with the same group of children. I'd like to eventually have four different animals to use as a kick off to a research project.
