Early Math Skills -"different" and "same"

The concepts of "different" and "same" are math concepts that will be used in later school years; therefore, they are considered critical first steps in learning to classify objects based on their visual characteristics. Our DT suggested to introduce these concepts to my son after he showed proficiency in matching.

Tommy got engaged with these activities since the first time I introduced it to him. I started playing the games What's different? and What's the same? with stuffed animals and animal figurines, which keep Tommy engages with the activity. We also play What's different? and What's the same? with the memory game Teddy Mix & match by Ravensburger, which is a memory game for ages from 2 1/2 to 5. We have also incorporated household items into the game to support Tommy's language development.
