Chinese Character Size Sort Game
Kids match bottle caps labeled with Chinese size characters (大, 中, 小) to the correct holes on a DIY cardboard box. It's a hands-on way to learn Chinese size concepts while building fine motor skills.

- 1
Write the Chinese size characters 大 (big), 中 (medium), and 小 (small) on the front of a cardboard box, each above a corresponding hole cut to different sizes.
- 2
Write matching characters on the inside of colorful bottle caps.
- 3
Have your child pick up each bottle cap, read the character, and drop it into the matching hole on the box.
