Virtual STEM Favorite: Measuring with Daisy

Supplies:

• Ruler (12" or 18" or 36") or measuring tape
• Yarn or string
• Scissor
• A stuffed animal or your pet

Directions:

1. Measure, as best you can, your pet or stuffed animal and determine its length in inches.
2. After you know how many inches, cut a piece of string or yarn the same length.
3. Take this piece of string and measure items around your house. How many cats (or hamsters or dogs, etc.) long is your kitchen? Your table? Your bed?

Please leave a comment below, tell us what you used to measure items around your house.
