💡 How Magni-Match Works

Print the cards on cardstock and laminate for durability. Children select two cards and use a magnifying glass to examine details closely, looking for matching patterns or features. The magnifying glass adds a scientific observation element while making the matching process more engaging. This activity builds the focused attention needed for later scientific observation and detailed comparison work.

Store the cards in a small basket with an inexpensive magnifying glass on your sensorial or science shelf. Children work independently, choosing which pairs to examine.
