It’s time for some messy learning!  Well, you can choose messy or not, but it definitely makes this cloud shapes with 2D shapes way more fun!

I made a set of Cloud Shape Cards with 2d Shape Names on them.  These can be used in a variety of ways. We went for messy play with this one, but it is definitely not a requirement to use these.cloud shapes with 2d shape cards.jpg

How to Use the 2D Cloud Shape Cards

These cards will print 2 per page, so you will want to cut them in half.  There are a few ways you can use them.

We put them into a sheet protector and played with them using shaving cream. My kids had a BLAST doing this!

Shaving cream is tons of fun to play in. They traced the shapes and the names of the shapes in the shaving cream.

We got really messy, but the joy on their faces? Priceless!

Some other ways to use the cards:

For a clean version, laminate the cards and write and trace the words or shapes with a dry erase marker.

Let kids color the clouds in with markers and write right on them.

Instead of shaving cream, try this with flour, rice or salt.
