Button Activities Inspired By Pete The Cat

Pete The Cat is one of our favorite books. We don’t just like one, we like most all of them. One that is our favorite, though, is Pete The Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons. It is such a clever, colorful and catchy book. My kids love the rhymes, fun pictures and I love that it is so helpful in teaching kids how to count. These Button Learning Activities are all inspired by this fabulous book.
