🦇 Teaching Tip from a Montessori Guide

I Spy activities are excellent for building concentration—children naturally stay engaged for extended periods when searching for hidden objects. When introducing these bat-themed cards, start by identifying what to search for: "Can you find all the bats hiding in this picture? Count them as you go!" For younger children (3-4), help them mark objects with a finger or counter before introducing markers. For older children (5-6), add challenge: "Which scene has the most bats? Can you find all six scenes?" Laminating cards and using dry-erase markers means endless reuse—children can work the same cards again and again, building familiarity and speed. This activity works beautifully during October for Halloween units or autumn nature studies about nocturnal animals.
